A New York judge has struck down a Long Island county’s order banning female transgender athletes after a local women’s roller derby league challenged it

A New York judge on Friday struck down a Long Island county's order banning female transgender athletes after a local women’s roller derby league challenged it. Judge Francis Ricigliano ruled that Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman didn't have the authority to issue his February executive order, which denies park permits to any women’s and girl’s teams, leagues or organizations that allow female transgender athletes to participate.

advocates say bills banning trans youth from participating in sports have passed in 24 states.
