A California high school volleyball player's season ended after she suffered a head injury competing against a transgender athlete.
The girl's father expressed frustration and powerlessness over the incident, and is now part of a group seeking change at a local level.
"From a distance it seemed like a boy dressed in a girl's volleyball uniform," Luis said.
A father has come forward to reveal that his daughter suffered a head injury after playing school volleyball against a team with a trans-identified male student.

"I told my wife that this was not fair. I felt frustrated that, in an indirect way, I was now supporting someone's gender confusion. To boot, they were now playing against my daughter and her teammates."
"Another parent turned to me and said, 'Did you see that? She was hit by that boy?'" he recalled.
"I had missed the actual hit, but felt the weight of everyone staring at me, including the opposing team," Luis added.
"She was playing for fun, and this was her final year doing it. She felt robbed. I felt deflated and powerless," Luis said.
"At what point does someone's gender dysphoria cross the empathy boundary? In my case … my daughter was injured."
A representative of the Independent Council on Women's Sports blamed California Governor Gavin Newsom for allowing boys to compete in girls' sports, leading to injuries and unfairness.
"The Governor dismisses situations like this girl's career-ending injury as unimportant to him," the the Independent Council on Women's Sports said of Gavin Newsom.
"[Newsom] believes the well-being of 'so few' boys is paramount when measured next to safety and fairness for girls. These boys are 'Gavin's Golden Boys.' They are allowed to do whatever they want and girls are acceptable collateral damage."
"It's time to stand up, speak up, and sue. Putting girls at known increased risk and stealing their opportunities is unethical."
Similar incidents of injury to female competitors from trans players have been reported in other states.
No memes, Trump, or fascist nonsense
Let's hear all about how Democratic policies regarding transgenders in sports are helping women.
No, let's set our hair on fire over a handful of trans athletes who have minimal consequences in a few sports as sanctioned by leagues...
Over something rare and merely consequential to haters and bigots!
After all, what more important issue is there to get perturbed over?
Brain injury...
I am almost positive that the girl injured by the boy feels better knowing you and fellow progressives support her and her safety.

A ten year boy old wearing face paint and a headdress to a football game.
Hey, come on, man, it's just a girl getting hurt, after all, no need to panic.
Nothing to see here, males and females often compete against each other in physical sports.......
Now THAT is certainly something to lose your shit over.
How DARE some kid support his team?!?
It shouldn’t require being Trans, if the school doesn’t offer Boys Volleyball, then Title IX should allow boys to try out for the team.
I don't think it quite works like that.
Injuries are suffered in sports regardless!
I think the kid triggered folks on purpose, did you see that smirk on his face.
Probably learned it all from that damn racist Covington kid, huh?
True, injuries occur---especially when males compete against females.
Males are inherently stronger, it's just science and biology, man.
Exactly, Nicholas Sandmann triggered that poor Native American Vet, Nathan Phillips.
I think Sandmann showed remarkable restraint.
I don't know if I could have just stood there while an idiot banged a drum inches from my face.
Phillips ceremonial drum beats and softly chanting were meant to defuse the situation.
You'd think someone as old as he was would know better than to antagonize others deliberately like that.
Probably was the PTSD from all the USMC action he saw in Nam.
Transgender is not a transfer portal for a mediocre male player to play in an easier league
Only in overactive transphobic imaginations.
There is zero evidence of non-transexual male athletes are faking it to compete with girls...
Males should compete against males.
Females should compete against females.
Trans can compete with other trans.
