The Updated Transgender Policy in Women's Football
The FA updated its transgender policy for women's football. Stricter criteria are in place.



The English Football Association has introduced a revised transgender policy for women's football. Transgender women can continue to compete if they meet certain conditions. These include reduced testosterone levels and a 'match observation' to assess potential risks. The FA claims it will handle eligibility on a case-by-case basis. There have been calls for policy changes, and some incidents have raised concerns. However, the FA believes its current rules are largely appropriate.
