Quick Glance: Court Overturns West Virginia Ban on Transgender in Sports
- A federal appeals court has overturned a ban on transgender individuals participating in sports in West Virginia, citing a violation of Title IX.

- West Virginia is just one of 24 states with legislation preventing transgender women and girls from competing in specific women's or girls' sports events.
