Currently, student-athletes in Tahoe Truckee Unified play sports in Nevada because of how close they are. But Nevada now bans transgender athletes in girls' sports, which is against California state law.
David Mack is the co-founder of Tahoe Pride and describes the new youth sports divide in the Tahoe region.
Nevada state lawmakers passed a law in April requiring a mandatory physical signed by a doctor to deem the athlete male or female based on their birth sex.
The Tahoe Truckee Unified School District is responding to the California Department of Education with a solution that the district legally join the California Interscholastic Federation in 2026, but continue to play in the Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association through 2028.
In an October letter addressed to the California Department of Education, the school district's attorney, Matthew Juhl-Darlington, said the Tahoe Truckee Unified is "not aware of any transgender youth who have expressed interest in participating in its 2025-2026 athletic programs."
California Republican Rep. Kevin Kiley is opposed to the state order, arguing the weather conditions in Tahoe need to be considered.
The school board was expected to explain its solution to both join California's CIF while playing in the NIAA through 2028 to parents and students Wednesday night at a board meeting.
So far, the California Department of Education has not said if it will accept this as a solution.
