The NCAA has officially changed its gender eligibility policies to ban all biological males from women's sports one day after President Donald Trump signed an executive order to address the issue.
The governing body of college sports announced on Thursday afternoon its new participation policy for transgender student-athletes.
"A student-athlete assigned male at birth may not compete on a women’s team," the new policy reads.
The new policy still allows biological females to compete on men's teams.
NCAA President Charlie Baker responded to the executive order in a statement later on Wednesday, saying it provided a "clear, national standard," and that the NCAA Board of Governors would review it and take steps to align the organization’s policy in the coming days.
