The NCAA has implemented a new policy prohibiting transgender women from participating in women's sports, effective immediately, adhering to President Trump's executive order. NCAA President Charlie Baker stated this decision aims for clear eligibility standards amid ongoing debates about transgender rights in athletics. While the new policy allows those assigned male at birth to practice with women's teams, competition is barred. This policy shift raises concerns among human rights advocates who view it as discriminatory. The education department is investigating potential Title IX violations at several institutions regarding this matter. Critics argue the move disproportionately targets a small population of athletes.
