On Trans Day of Visibility, a new poem for the footballers who are no longer seen on the pitches they previously shared with friends, following the English FA’s policy change

Written and performed by Sarah McCreadie, in support of the Football v Transphobia Week of Action

Following the news this week that the IOC is to reintroduce sex testing for women athletes, we would like to reassure you that ALL women are welcome to compete at Cardiff #EuroGames 2027

🚨 No such testing is mandated in the male category

🚨 Grassroots sports will be affected, with heightened scrutiny on women and girls who do not meet stereotypical definitions of femininity

🚨 Many countries have legislation that protect against genetic testing unless it is health-related or for medical research

🚨 Privacy for impacted athletes cannot be guaranteed

🚨 It is likely testing will be undertaken on children (the youngest athlete at Paris 2024 was 11 years old)

🚨 Athletes who are forced to disclose private genetic information and return a positive test result, are likely to experience further highly invasive examinations

🚨No relationship between the SRY gene and athletic performance has ever been shown

🚨The SRY gene, which the test is hoping to identify in athletes, does not reliably indicate a person’s sex

Pride Sports is bitterly disappointed to see the IOC’s new policy on genetic testing in the female category and sees this as a significant attack on inclusive women’s sport.

PS believes the policy is scientifically flawed, unethical, undermining of human rights and harmful to women and girls.

Fantastic read on the (il)legality of sex testing in sport.

With particular reference to World Athletics & World Boxing’s decision to introduce genetic testing as a precondition for competing in the women’s category 🧬
