The wearing of rainbow laces is a show of support for lesbian, gay, bi and trans (LGBT) fans and players on and off the pitch as part of Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign.

Rainbow Laces-themed activities are also taking place at clubs in the EFL’s three divisions this weekend, joining other professional and grass roots sports clubs in backing the campaign.

Activities include teams wearing Rainbow Laces during training, laces being handed out at weekend fixtures and clubs organising meetings between LGBT fan groups. Match officials are also joining in, with referees lacing up with rainbow laces for this weekend’s fixtures.
