Summary
NCAA President Charlie Baker is doubling down on the organization’s national policy for transgender athletes, refusing to change course despite recent Supreme Court rulings that allow states to ban them from school sports. The NCAA’s standard—aligned with Trump-era guidelines—excludes transgender women from competing in women’s sports if they were assigned male at birth or are on testosterone therapy, while men’s teams remain open to all. As states clash over bans versus inclusion, Baker insists the NCAA’s own rules will stay unchanged, even as the debate rages on and fewer than ten transgender athletes currently compete at the collegiate level.
