What the new transgender law in Florida means for female athletes

One day after Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill banning transgender girls from participating in women's sports, 10 Tampa Bay is taking a deep dive into what this means for all the female athletes across the state of Florida. DeSantis signed the "Fairness in Women’s Sports Act" on Tuesday, which goes into effect on July 1. The law says female student-athletes need to provide birth certificates listing them as girls at birth in order to participate in school sports designated for women. It will also allow other students to sue schools that ignore the legislation and allow transgender women or girls to play on designated women's teams anyway.
