Female High-School Volleyball Athlete Suffers Serious Head Injury after Transgender Player Throws ‘Abnormally Fast’ Ball A North Carolina high-school volleyball athlete has suffered a severe injury after a transgender player threw an “abnormally fast” ball at her head, newly released video footage shows. The male opponent hurled the volleyball at approximately 70 mph, according to the Daily Mail. One bystander claimed that it was “abnormally” fast, the publication said. The female teammate at Hiwassee Dam High School experienced trauma to the head and neck, reportedly. She is still recovering from long-term concussion symptoms, including problems with her vision. She has not yet been approved to compete again. Hiwassee Dam will forfeit all games against the transgender player’s school, a decision made by the Cherokee County school board in a five to one vote. The board mentioned concerns about safety without addressing the transgender component, the fact that a biological male with a significant physical advantage overpowered a female player. www.yahoo.com/news/female-high-school-volleyball-athlete-191021646.html

" threw" a volleyball? Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Unless the rules have drastically changed, there is no throwing in volleyball.

I hope she will be okay. It could have happened even if thrown by someone who was not transgender.
I am kinda on the fence on if it's really fair to have transgender males playing with females in sports....
