Interscholastic athletic competition based on biological sex, requirements for physical examinations and genetic testing in interscholastic athletics, and the adoption of rules by the University Interscholastic League to implement these requirements

TX HB1123 aims to establish guidelines for interscholastic athletic competitions based on the biological sex of participants. It includes requirements for physical examinations and genetic testing for athletes. The University Interscholastic League would be responsible for creating rules to enforce these requirements.

Supporters of TX HB1123 believe it promotes fairness in sports by ensuring that competitions are conducted based on biological sex. They argue that this will protect the integrity of women's sports and ensure a level playing field for all athletes.

Critics of TX HB1123 argue that the bill discriminates against transgender athletes and undermines inclusivity in sports. They contend that it could lead to unnecessary invasions of privacy through physical examinations and genetic testing, ultimately harming young athletes' mental health and well-being.
