FA bans transgender women from women’s football in England
May 1 – After years of legal wrangling, shifting policies and uneasy compromise, the Football Association has determined that, from 1 June, only those born biologically female will be eligible to play women’s football in England.
The decision comes in the wake of a landmark UK Supreme Court ruling earlier this month that determined the legal definition of a woman as based on biological sex – a judgment that effectively rewrote the context in which sporting bodies like the FA can now operate.
