A public school district is in the process of transferring from Nevada’s high school sports conference to California, so it can avoid Nevada’s new policy that keeps biological men out of high school competitions and dressing rooms.

Tahoe Truckee Unified School District (TTUSD) in Truckee, California, leaves Nevada Interscholastic Activity Association (NIAA) to join California Interscholastic Federation (CIF).

The change comes into force in the fall of 2025 and comes after NIAA voted to ban Trans athletes from the girls’ category during its April 2nd board meeting. It was made to comply with President Donald Trump’s “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports” executive order. However, California has continued to defy the order and enabled trans -cluttering in girls’ sports.

Several TTUSD parents and girls’ athletes pleaded with the school officials not to switch to California’s Federation in Truckee Unified School Board Meeting Wednesday night.

Not only did they talk about the notion of letting trans athletes in girls’ sports, but many speakers also pointed out that other details of contact would affect the district’s sports team’s ability to implement their seasons, including travel and planning changes that would lead to potential weather complications for outdoor events.

The current setup with Truckee competing in NIAA allows its teams to travel eastward to Nevada for most of its away competition as the city sits near the northern California-Nevada border. But with the upcoming change, the students could soon have to travel west for most of their outdoor competition.

This means that students will often have to travel through California’s Donner Pass, a 7,056 foot high mountain pass. In winter, the pass is known to be dangerous due to extreme weather conditions such as strong snowfall, strong wind and icy roads. The high altitude and frequent storms contribute to treacherous travel conditions, including the potential for avalanche.

Truckee High School Girls’ Track and Field Athlete Ava Cochram expressed her fear of playing against trans athletes.

“Men generally have more muscle mass, higher lung capacity and greater bone density that gives them greater benefits, physically, in sports, and I think it’s very unfair to see all our hard work as women to go down in the drain,” Cochram said. “I don’t mind transgender people, but I think this is a violation of our privacy.”

Truckee High School Girls Football, Railway and Basketball Ballet Kenzie Zilstorf lamented the idea of ​​changing with trans athletes in the same closet space and should increase the risk of traveling with the change.

“It’s even more bad if a woman has to walk in the dressing room with a man and change with them. There are two sexes, a man and a woman,” Zilstorf said. “And I think it’s unfair that we have to take a dangerous drive to risk our lives over the top when there is snow, all because of a privacy rule. This is wrong.”

North Tahoe High School Girls Footballer Anna Holly said she won’t even play girls’ football anymore because of the change.

“It’s sad for me because this is the only time I get to play football in my life and I really enjoy it, but I choose basketball over it,” Holly said. “And biologically, boys are born with greater speed and strength than girls, and having to play against them, they have an unreasonable advantage and I wouldn’t feel comfortable with them. There are also security concerns about how much stronger they are than us.”

TTUSD was still defending his decision to switch to CIF in a statement delivered to Pakinomist Digital.

“A recent Nevada Interscholastic Activity Association (NIAA) Political change made on April 2, 2025, is directly in conflict with California’s state law, specifically the California Education Code’s mandate against discrimination and protection of student privacy. Read a statement from TTUSD to FOX News Digital.

TTUSD also said it expects the new events to lead to shorter travel times for its students athletes for outdoor competitions despite concern over Donner Pass.

“TTUSD collaborates with CIF on details related to league task, schedules and travel distances. We expect the total mileage student athletes to travel within the CIF will be less than our current travel plans,” the district’s statement reads.
