Bill Summary
Interscholastic; intramural athletics; biological sex
AI Summary
This bill requires that all interscholastic and intramural athletic teams or sports sponsored by public schools or private schools competing against public schools be expressly designated as "males/men/boys," "females/women/girls," or "coed/mixed" based on the biological sex of the participating students. It prohibits biological males from participating on female teams and provides a private cause of action for students who are deprived of athletic opportunities or suffer harm due to a school's violation of these provisions. The bill also includes legislative findings on the physiological differences between males and females that justify separate sports categories.
