They will also need documented testosterone levels four weeks before championship selections. Full implementation would begin with the 2023-24 academic year.More frequent hormone testing is seen in the IOC policy for sex verification. The motives behind these new implementations, according to the NCAA, is so that there is “consistency and further strengthens the relationship between college sports and U.S. Olympics” Overall, the topic and policies of transgender athletes in post secondary sports is highly controversial.
