Any info on how often the testing is required?

This muppet was struggling to get a kick in the reserves of a local league competition. Wouldn't have been drafted anyway.
Just an attention seeking <snip consider this a warning>, who couldn't get a kick in a stampede.

Mate, if I put on a skirt and grew a pony tail, I'd win the comp B & F.

Skids, you'd pull a hamstring two minutes into your first game and spend the rest of the season in the team mascot costume.

Congratulations to Rachel McKinnon, the 1st transgender athlete to win a world championship.
Ms. McKinnon has an interesting perspective on any biological advantage she may have over her competitors:
| Quote: | Focusing on performance advantage is largely irrelevant because this is a rights issue. We shouldnt be worried about trans people taking over the Olympics.
We should be worried about their fairness and human rights instead. |

Interesting read. I disagree with her, being recognised legally as a woman for societal purposes is different to competing in sport. Growing up male she would have developed higher levels of muscle mass than same age women. Just reducing testosterone levels (which she doesn't agree with that being monitored) doesn't reduce the physical advantage.

Thats taking it a a little faR.
I really dont think there is an answer.
The fact is though, this female has been genetically modified to be a legal female. And thats fine, I really do believe some people are born in the wrong body. But this is no different to taking steroids, no one can look st that photo and say its fair. Show me the biggest female in the world, the fastest, and their body will still have certain mechanics that dont work the same way. Its just plain wrong.
Her rights? How about the rights of the rest of the field? Its not just about a shiny gold medal, its about the years of hard work and the sponsors dollars.
