Safeguarding competitiveness in girls' interscholastic athletic activities by establishing rules for fair competition.

The bill establishes rules for fair competition in girls' interscholastic athletic activities in Washington. It mandates the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association or a voluntary nonprofit entity to adopt rules ensuring fair competition and safety, considering physiological and hormonal variations. Penalties for rule violations must be proportional and imposed only if the student knowingly violated the rules or gained a significant competitive advantage. The rules do not require the abolition of distinct boys' and girls' teams but encourage their organization.
