Gabby Williams, who’s been vocal about trans inclusion in sports, was asked what it's like to play for a fan base and a franchise that really speaks out for inclusion, that wants everyone to show up as their full selves: “I've said it multiple times that Ballhalla became my safe space. I mean, I'll never stop fighting for those who maybe can't fight for themselves in this moment. I'll continue to use my platform in that way, but it's scary, you know. Obviously, I was getting plenty of death threats. There was, you know, some security issues and stuff, and there were moments where I was like, how am I gonna play through all this? And then I would walk into Ballhalla and be like, oh, that's how, that's how. So I want to thank our fan base for just being themselves because it allowed me to be myself, and that's you. This is what the Bay Area is all about. The Bay Area is a pioneer in these kinds of issues and topics. So I'm proud to represent the Bay.”
