# Upcoming Tournaments

Rainbow Summer Sports in the Netherlands  
This queer sports day takes place in the university town of Nijmegen, which is about 90mins from Schipol airport by train. Separate competitions will be held on 20th June and will be followed by a combined dinner and afterparty bringing together competitors from all events. The vibe here is very casual and the badminton level is perfect for anyone from C to B levels (Div10 to 6) - highly recommended!
