California makes 2. Rule change to girls’ field championships in the middle of trans -transaction

California’s High School Sports League made a major rule change to its future girls’ freedom of freedom for the second day in a row.

The changes are coming as the state faces increasing pressure, both internally from its own residents and from President Donald Trump’s administration due to a growing controversy involving a trans athlete.

On Wednesday, California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) announced that Saturday’s state title meets will now expand its pool of competitors and even medal recipients to accommodate all female athletes displaced by a biologically male competitor.

CIF specifically makes this rule change for the long -jumping, high -mood and triple jump events.

“On Friday, May 30, if necessary in the height jump, triple jumps and long-varying events on the CIF State Track and Field Championships 2025, a biologically female student athlete who would have earned the next qualification brand will also be performed to the final,” the CIF message reads.

“In addition, if necessary, in the height jump, triple jumps and long-hopping events at the CIF State Track and Field Championships 2025, a biologically female student athlete who would have earned a specific location on the podium will also be awarded the medal for this place and the results will be reflected in the record of the event.”

CIF’s freedom after the season has been shaken by a national controversy involving Trans Athlete AB Hernandez from the Jurupa Valley High School competing in these events, and regularly dominates female competition. The athlete took first place in Langhopp and triple jumps in a section final and state -qualifying round in the last two weeks.

CIF’s latest change comes only a day after the Federation expanded the size of its competitor pool.

“Any biologically female student athlete who would have earned the next qualification brand for one of their section’s automatic qualification inputs in the CIF State Meet, and did not achieve the CIF state in the big brand in the final at their section meeting, was extended an opportunity to attend 2025 CIF State Track and Field Championships,” CIF said on Tuesday.

Wednesday’s change also comes only a day after the family of a female competitor was set to meet Hernandez in the championship for Pakinomist Digital, they believe the CIF expanded the competitor’s pool was enough.

CIFS ‘solution’ to this situation, which allows additional girls to compete at the state championship, which otherwise did not qualify because the transient athlete took their place is not good enough – it is still an unreasonable competition and an injustice for the girls competing, “the family told La Canada Girls’ track Star Katie McGuinness.

“To allow biological men to compete in women’s sports is unfair, unfair, and troubles common sense,” the family added.

Controvers involving Hernandez has led to local, state and national indignation of families and activists, while President Donald Trump has shown that he is willing to sanction the state over the situation.

Trump sent a post about the truth Social Tuesday morning warning California and head of government Gavin Newsom about potential federal financing cuts to the state and even has orders to send local authorities to prevent a trans athlete from competing in girls’ category on Saturday.

Trump did not specifically named the athlete or school he was referring to in the social media post.

But on Wednesday, the US Department of Justice announced that it would launch a study of CIF and California’s legal lawyer Rob Bonta over the state’s law, giving biologically male trans athletes the opportunity to compete with girls and women.

A letter of complaint that informed about the investigation was addressed to the Jurupa Valley High School, DOJ has told Pakinomist Digital. Jurupa Unified School District (JUSD) has told Pakinomist Digital that it has not received a letter.

DOJ’s message shows the school district of the official announcement of the investigation.

Jusd has previously defended to let Hernandez compete in the girls category.

“JUSD continues to follow both California’s legislation and CIF policy on schooletics. Both state legislation and CIF policy currently require students to be allowed to participate in athletic teams and competitions that are in line with their gender identity, regardless of the students we earn, in the useful state and the connection law.

Other competitors have stated throughout the course and the field after the season against the CIF and the state to let the situation move on to this point.

The second place finishes to Hernandez in triple jumps in a section final on May 17, Reese Hogan from Crean Lutheran High School, made it a point to stand in first place podium site for a quick and symbolic photo up. Recordings of Hogan that took the top podium space after the Trans athlete went out viral on social media over the weekend.

“It’s just a little sad just looking at. He’s obviously a really talented athlete, we’ve all seen him jump and so, and I wish him good luck, but in a boys’ department,” Hogan earlier to Pakinomist Digital told to compete against the athlete. “It’s pretty obvious the certain benefits he has, and it’s obviously just sad as a woman to see it.”

Brea Olinda student Julia Teven was one of the few female athletes who have beaten the Jurupa Valley’s athlete this year, tying to first place in the height of the section’s prelims earlier this month, while the Trans -Athlet ended eighth.

“I really think he doesn’t have a detrimental intention of girls sports. I think it’s the kind of similar, cif that allows him that is kind of put him in his position,” Teven said. “I really think he’s just like being capable of cif and he just uses his apartment for him.”
