World Athletics has banned trans athletes from competing in women’s events leading to controversy and praise.

British Shot Put Champion Amelia Strickler says “A lot of women especially in athletics are really really excited about this – now that we’ve got the elite level, it needs to be all levels all sports.”

“Biologically, they’re still the sex that they’re competing against – reducing a testosterone level is not gonna cut it because women are so much more than a testosterone level,” she said.
