Requires middle and high school sports teams designated for females to exclude anyone not assigned female at birth, so less access to those teams for transgender girls.
shall not permit persons other than those assigned female at birth to join such team or participate in such sport if such athletic team or sport is expressly designated solely for female athletes.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds Education Law § 3229, which bars anyone not assigned female at birth from female-designated interscholastic or intramural sports in grades 7-12. This directly addresses transgender/sports by restricting participation based on birth sex.
