Transgender women are to be banned in England and Wales directly by the cricket for women and girls.
The England and the Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said on Friday that it had updated its previous restrictions after a judgment of the UK Supreme Court last month. The ECB said that transgender women would no longer be able to play “with immediate effect” in cricket and girls cricket.
“Transgender women and girls can continue to play in open and mixed cricket,” said the ECB.
The announcement comes a day after transgender athletes were banned from the football association in England and Scotland to play in women’s football teams.
Transgender women were already excluded from the beginning of this year from the two best elite women -Cricket, but were allowed to compete in the women’s game on the lower levels, including leisure cricket.
No longer.
Great Britain’s highest court issued a judgment two weeks ago in which a woman was born organic for anti -discrimination purposes for anti -discrimination purposes. The head of the Equality and Human Rights Commission said after the decision that transgender women from women toilets, hospital stations and sports teams would be excluded.
While the judgment was cheered on by some feminist groups, it was convicted by trans law groups who said that it would have a broad and adverse influence on everyday life.
The topic was polarized in Great Britain and beyond, especially in the United States, where President Donald Trump signed instructions to ban the participation of transgender athletes in sport and to use a rigid definition of gender and not for gender for the purposes of the Federal Government.
The orders are challenged in court.
Transgender people in the USA say they are concerned about what will come after President Donald Trump signed an executive order in which he said that his government only recognizes two genders who are assigned at birth.
