The German Football Association announced on the 23rd that transgender and other players who do not have the same mental and physical gender can now choose which team to play for.
The German Football Association has set new rules regarding the rights of players to play after the 2022-2023 season.
According to it, transgender players whose mind and body do not match, non-binary players whose self-identification is not bound by male and female, and intersex with male and female body characteristics. This means that players can now choose which team to play for, male or female.
In Germany, it has been decided whether to play as a man or woman depending on the gender stated on the ID card, but from 2018 it has become possible to choose to list other than `` male'' and `` female'' on the ID card. It means that.
