Trans athletes barred from participating in women's sports
The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) which oversees more than 200 smaller colleges and universities announced a new policy this week that essentially bans transgender athletes from competing in women's sports. The policy states that "only athletes who were assigned female at birth and have not begun hormone therapy" can take part in competition; it is believed to be the first college sports governing body to take such a step. KTVU's Alex Savidge and Heather Holmes discuss the move and its future implications with Shaun Fletcher, Professor of Public Relations and Sport Communication at San Jose State University.
