British Rowing announced Thursday that transgender women will be banned from competing in women’s events as of next month. The sport’s national governing body announced that after “extensive and ongoing research and consultation” only athletes who were “assigned female at birth” will be allowed to enter its women’s races. The policy is set to take effect Sept. 11.
It will also apply to all athletes representing Britain or England in international events, including the Olympics and the Paralympics. The policy change also promises the establishment of an “open” category that anyone, including transgender and non-binary athletes, will be eligible to compete in.
