Mark Bullingham, CEO of the FA, communicated that the ban on transgender women from womenâs football was necessitated by legal advice following a supreme court ruling on the definition of a woman. Goal Diggers FC responded by delivering an open letter to the FA demanding the reversal of this decision. Bullingham acknowledged the difficult impact of this ban and emphasized the FA's commitment to supporting transgender players. However, Goal Diggers player Becky Taylor-Gill criticized the FA for not advocating more passionately for inclusivity in football, emphasizing their responsibility to uphold their motto, "Football for all."
We are aware of the significant impact this will have on them...and it will have repercussions for Goal Diggers FC, your players, coaches, volunteers and fans, who all play an important role in championing diversity in football.
Their motto is football for all. Put your money where your mouth is...We've created a safe space for trans women in our women's team that we really cherish.
