FA "Horrendous" Over Trans Women In Women's Football, Says Sharron Davies
Former Olympian Sharron Davies says the Supreme Court’s ‘clarification’, is the only reason the FA announced a ban on trans women in women’s football.
“Their insurance was going to be null and void if a male injured a female, in a female game of football.”
Transgender women will no longer be able to play in women’s football from June 1, 2025, the Football Association has announced.
The FA said it had updated its policy in light of last month’s UK Supreme Court ruling regarding the Equality Act.
The governing body’s transgender inclusion policy had been updated just prior to that ruling, and continued to allow transgender women to play in women’s football provided they reduced testosterone levels. Those rule changes gave the FA ultimate discretion on permitting a trans woman to play, with consideration given to safety and fairness issues.
