The NCAA has formulated this criteria for participation in sports and it isn't that different from what we are saying here. I tried to cut and paste but I can't - it's on page 13. It essentially says that if not medically transitioning, athletes have to compete on the team in accordance with their assigned birth gender.

Thank you for the explanation! I was really mystified by the emphasis on full transition from some posters.
