Bill Summary

To prohibit a publicly funded intercollegiate female sports team from competing against any team on which there is a player whose assigned sex at birth is male, except competitions held only for exhibition purposes.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend Title 10a of the general statutes to restrict publicly funded intercollegiate female sports teams from competing against teams that include players whose assigned sex at birth is male, with an exception for exhibition competitions. In practical terms, this means that women's college sports teams that receive public funding would be prohibited from participating in competitive matches against teams that include transgender athletes who were assigned male at birth, though they would still be permitted to play such teams in non-competitive exhibition games. The bill aims to address concerns about fairness in women's sports by limiting competitive interactions between teams with different gender compositions. By specifically focusing on competitive matches and allowing exhibition games, the legislation seeks to balance competitive integrity with opportunities for intercollegiate athletic engagement.
