Georgia State Sports Board: Student Athletes Must Participate In Sports Based On Birth Certificate Sex
The governing body for Georgia high school sports voted to mandate that student-athletes compete in sports based on the sex of their birth certificate.

The Georgia High School Association (GHSA) voted unanimously Wednesday that all athletes who wish to play sports must participate based on their biological sex. The governing board represents 463 high schools statewide.
The 62-0 vote restores a former policy that pre-dated 2016, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. In 2016, the GHSA allowed individual member schools to set their own policy on how to deal with transgender athletes.
