Bill Summary
Interscholastic athletics; biological sex
AI Summary
This bill requires that interscholastic and intramural athletic teams sponsored by educational institutions in Arizona be designated based on the biological sex of the participants as male, female, or coed. It prohibits biological males from participating on female sports teams. The bill provides for a private cause of action for students who are deprived of athletic opportunities or suffer harm due to violations of the law, as well as for educational institutions that suffer harm. The bill also includes legislative findings on the physiological differences between males and females that provide the basis for sex-specific athletic teams.
