As part of this commitment, we continuously review our policies and have concluded that our existing ‘Transgender policy’ should be reviewed to ensure our approach remains fit for purpose, reflects best practices and aligns with evolving guidance in sport and society.
After consultation we have agreed a well thought-out approach which has been approved by the Basketball England Board. Our next steps include collaborating with the wider basketball communities to bring all of our knowledge, experience and considerations into play. This review is about safety, fairness and inclusion, doing our best to keep Basketball a welcoming space for all participants.
We will continue to communicate openly as this process progresses and appreciate the support of our basketball family in shaping a policy that reflects shared values.
