The original olympic ideals were excellence, respect and friendship. I know these are qualities my membership value. When we hear about people excluding trans people from sport, and keep in mind this targets a tiny number of athletes, don’t be fooled into thinking they’re arguing a ‘fairness’ issue. It’s purely a dog whistle to create a negative talking point about us.
Instead, lets stay focused on the real issues here. Competing with friends, at a school, local or international level, should always be about friendships, respect and excellence. It should never be about finding a way to create a political fracture between people who simply enjoy sport.
