Former professional tennis player Martina Navratilova and women’s rights advocate Riley Gaines spoke about protections for female athletes on an X Spaces event.

The tide may be turning in favor of protecting female athletes against playing biological males in women’s sports, according to some activists. The Our Bodies Our Sports coalition hosted an X Spaces event on Thursday which featured several speakers demanding the NCAA ban transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports.

Following the NCAA Board of Governors meeting Thursday, a statement released on its website said, 'The Board of Governors discussed transgender student-athlete participation. The current policy remains under review. College sports are the premier stage for women's sports in America and the NCAA will continue to promote Title IX, make unprecedented investments in women's sports and ensure fair competition for all student-athletes in all NCAA championships.
