London-based club bring together players to compete in an event aimed at showing solidarity with trans footballers
On Sunday morning more than 100 players gathered in north London to compete in an inclusive women’s football tournament to protest against the ban on transgender women in women’s football on the day it came into effect.
Last month the Football Association announced that trans women would no longer be able to compete in women’s football as result of the supreme court’s ruling on 16 April that the terms “women” and “sex” in the Equality Act 2010 refer only to biological women and biological sex. This is believed to affect 28 FA-registered trans women.
