Bill Summary

This bill prohibits any student from joining or participating in an interscholastic or intramural athletic team or sports activity sponsored by an elementary or secondary school or postsecondary institution that is designated for "females," "women" or "girls" except for students of the female gender. A student prohibited from joining or participating in an athletic team or sport activity on the basis that the student is not a female may dispute the denial to the Commissioner of Education with a signed statement from a physician stating that the student is a female based upon the student's internal and external reproductive anatomy and naturally occurring level of testosterone and an analysis of the student's chromosomes.

AI Summary

This bill prohibits students who are not biologically female from participating in interscholastic or intramural sports teams or activities designated for "females," "women," or "girls." However, a student who is prohibited from participating can dispute the determination by providing a signed statement from a physician stating that the student is female based on their internal and external reproductive anatomy, naturally occurring testosterone levels, and chromosome analysis.
