THE FIGHT TO
SAVE WOMEN’S SPORTS
PROTECT HER LEGACY
Competitive sport is a zero-sum game, where some athletes make the cut, others do not; someone wins, others lose. In a zero-sum competition, the inclusion of male athletes in women’s sport inevitably means FEMALES LOSE OUT.
January 20, 2025 President Trump signed Executive Order 14168, titled "Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government.”
February 5, 2025 President Trump signed Executive Order 14201, titled "Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports.”
“Independent Women, it’s a fantastic group of people that fought very hard on this issue.”
-President Trump
NCAA Policy Update
On February 5, 2025 NCAA President Charlie Baker issued a statement:
“President Trump's order provides a clear, national standard. The NCAA Board of Governors is reviewing the executive order and will take necessary steps to align NCAA policy in the coming days, subject to further guidance from the administration.”
Effective February 6, 2025, NCAA established new policy barring men from competing in women’s collegiate sports.
Thanks to 7,000+ female NCAA athletes for contacting the NCAA Board of Governors and demanding they
protect women’s sports.
