LINCOLN — The governing body for Nebraska high school sports, after dropping the issue for two years, is moving forward with drafting a policy that governs participation by transgender athletes.
At least two transgender students have expressed interest in participating in winter sports this year, prompting the action by the Nebraska School Activities Association.

High School sports are going to start getting interesting, at least the litigation and results.

I kind of have mixed feelings on this in the case of MtFs who have not been on hormone blockers or HRT. It's not really fair to the other people who also want to participate in the sport.
