Appalling. And once again, useless sporting bodies, falling over themselves to support this nonsense.
On November 24, 2023, the DBU published a statement announcing that “all genders are welcome in Danish football,” and promising to implement a new position within the organization for a “diversity officer.”
“DBU will make a structural investment for increased diversity. As one of the first things, DBU will hire a diversity officer whose expertise in, among other things, this area will help with inclusion,” the statement reads.
“Towards 2025, the goal is to create the framework for it to become possible in grassroots football for transgender people to play with the gender they identify as… The method is based on self-identification, which has already been introduced in German grassroots football, and the method aims to ensure that everyone feels included and welcome.”
Additionally, the DBU published a guidance on “inclusion” with Jacobsen’s input, which encourages Danish football clubs to permit men to enter women’s locker rooms and changing facilities.
Yeah, look to Germany as a good example...🙄
