ASANA Player Spotlight: Rey Rey

ASANA Player Spotlight: Rey Rey (Atlanta, GA | Divas On Dirt)

Rey Rey, a cornerstone of Atlanta’s LGBTQ+ sports community, embodies the spirit of diversity and resilience that makes ASANA extraordinary. With her “no b.s., let’s play ball” mentality, she’s spent over a decade uplifting athletes—first with Chicago’s undefeated team, SLOANS, until 2010, before bringing her talents to Atlanta. Returning

to the field in 2019, she joined Hotlanta’s iPride league with Lady Primetime, then made her ASANA World Series debut in Virginia Beach (2021). Since then, she’s competed

with ASANA’s Divas On Dirt at the World Series in Washington D.C. (2022) and San Diego (2023), and she’ll be a force this year in Myrtle Beach, with her sights already set on 2025.

Though she never sought the spotlight, Rey Rey’s leadership radiates naturally as a

“Mama Bear”—mentoring newcomers, fostering inclusivity, and creating safe spaces

where athletes of all backgrounds thrive. Her unapologetic authenticity and grit have

shattered societal barriers, carving out room not just for women and women of color,

but anyone seeking belonging in sports. From organizing practices to leading by

example, Rey Rey ensures every player feels seen, valued, and empowered. Her

journey—from overcoming exclusion to building community—mirrors the collective

resilience of those she inspires. We proudly celebrate Rey Rey as a trailblazer who

turns adversity into opportunity, reminding us all that sports are stronger, louder, and

more vibrant when everyone has a place to shine.
