About

GCR (Gym Class Rejects) is a project dedicated to traditional and eccentric sports stories. 

Created in 2021, we aim to shed light on awe-inspiring, heartwarming narratives beyond the sports arena and under the bright lights.

We cover football, basketball, eSports, chess, F1, athletics and other sporting activities outside the mainstream. 

If you love reading the craziest sports stories about your favorite sportspeople, you are home.
