A sports club in Bristol has been forced to remove the word "boys" from its name after councillors ruled that it was sexist.
Broad Plain Boys' Club, which has gone under the name since 1894, faced the loss of funding unless it could show it was inclusive, so submitted an alteration.
The sports club, which does now have girl members, has changed the name to Broad Plain Working With Young People Group.
