Massachusetts H584 ensures fairness and safety in school sports by preventing penalties for forfeiting matches against teams with opposite-sex.

Massachusetts H584 aims to ensure fairness and safety in school sports by prohibiting public schools from penalizing single-sex sports teams, coaches, or student athletes for forfeiting or refusing to play against teams with athletes of the opposite sex. The bill defines a "single-sex team" as one designated as either a girls' or boys' team, as opposed to co-ed. The only exception is that such a forfeit may be recorded as a loss. The bill affects public schools, single-sex sports teams, coaches, and student athletes.
