NIAA creating policy for transgender athletes
By Catherine Van, KOLO-TV
Should transgender high school athletes be able to decide for themselves whether to play on the boys team or girls team? Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association is considering granting transgender students the ability to choose.
High school sports can be gender exclusive but for those athletes who identify with the opposite sex, those eligibility lines can be blurry. More than half a dozen states including Washington and California have adopted the policies to allow transgender students to compete on teams of their choosing and Nevada could be next.
“Issues with respect to high school athletics has become somewhat of a larger and open issue on a national basis,” Paul Anderson, NIAA legal counsel said.
Transgender students are a small but growing group across the nation and Nevada plans to stay ahead of the curve.
The NIAA includes high schools in the Lake Tahoe Basin that are in California as well as Truckee.
Boy gear = boys team
Girl gear = girls team
Pretty simple….
Just make all the sports teams co-ed.
And the locker rooms too!
Burger doesn’t know the difference between sex and gender.
But that doesn’t stop them commenting. Such courage.
