![WCBC statement on recent OURCs rule changes.
[Plain text version]
The Wollson College Boat Club condemns the recent rule change that disproportionately harms trans and gender diverse athletes.
This policy will forcibly “out” athletes, deny them the opportunity to continue to engage with their athletic communities, and send a signal of exclusion to the wider university population.
This Summer VIlls will be marked by its abrupt exclusion of athletes. College rowing should be a source of community for all students, and we oppose attempts to undermine this.
WCBC is committed to the inclusion of athletes of all genders, and their right to join the side most representative of their identity.
We stand with trans and gender-diverse athletes and call for this exclusionary policy to be reconsidered.](https://scontent-den2-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.82787-15/702516040_18412700716178349_7585382905033535489_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=110&ccb=7-5&_nc_sid=18de74&efg=eyJlZmdfdGFnIjoiRkVFRC5iZXN0X2ltYWdlX3VybGdlbi5DMyJ9&_nc_ohc=0FL0lZdepXAQ7kNvwHFur7y&_nc_oc=Adrwpr7p-Xq2yxqU7H7y-TUBx8YzDi_Tg7xbmbjac1QgPNxlyGtX5jW1huOSjznxT-g&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-den2-1.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=dZxWy5G8lVoeEwWoVlTYQw&_nc_tpa=Q5bMBQGzOt5oqfsGYLYW8JT7oVzUZ02K8pMubz2uf-v3W-gRNZpZ5i27qVQGfG9_PVAhWLPBqzHVlqNH&oh=00_Af4-SIBZBdxCdPMmltke2mqLLdk6y51Y24_JEDqa1X44ng&oe=6A1CDB9F)
