Transgender Policy For Competitions (Serious Question)

[toyboy54]

A bloke at our club transitioned to female. The plan was to become so good that he could join the LET. Absolutely worked his bollocks of trying to get there, but just wasn't good enough.

Surgically??

If he really wanted to ruin the joke, maybe he should have posted:

A bloke person assigned male at birth at our club transitioned to female. The plan was to become so good that he she (they) could join the LET. Absolutely worked his her (their) bollocks non-conforming primary sexual characteristics off trying to get there, but just wasn't good enough.

Probably a bit of topic, but watching mens cycling final--now they ARE WORKING THEIR BOLLOCKS OFF!!
But don't think they'll qualify for the womens events

We are looking at whether we should be adding a policy statement to our competition and open rules covering transgender entries.

Has anyone given this any thought or attempted to put something in writing?

Transgendered golfers are covered by National bodies ie England Golf, if a player meets their criteria then that should be that, I don't see a need for anything specific at club level.
