As of today trans women have been banned from playing women's rugby in any USA Rugby sanctioned matches. I only found this sport because I transitioned, and I fell deeply in love. I found friends, and a support network who wanted me to play with them. I was able to express my gender and find myself on the pitch, in ways I thought were closed off to me after I transitioned. I think this is a cowardly move, and an embarrassment to the sport of rugby.

Basically every team in the country coming out and saying "trans women are welcome on our team" is amazing. I am just overwhelmed by the amount of support the rugby community is showing trans women. It is truly incredible to know the whole community stands with us
