A transgender footballer for a lower-league South Yorkshire team believes she is being discriminated against by teams boycotting matches if she is playing.
On Rossington Main Ladies FC Facebook page, Francesca Needham was quoted as expressing her hope the "issue of perceived discrimination against me can be resolved peacefully" with assistance from the Football Association.
Needham said she was being forced to quit playing for now.
The Football Association told Sky News: "We are working with Sheffield & Hallamshire County FA to find a resolution.
"This issue is complex and constantly evolving, and like many other national governing bodies in sport, we are currently reviewing our transgender policy for English football to ensure it is inclusive, fair and safe for all."
The FA's current transgender policy is that "gender identity should not be a barrier to participation in football" but eligibility is determined on a case-by-case basis.
Players over the age of 16 assigned male at birth wanting to compete in women's football have to show their blood testosterone levels are "within natal female range for an appropriate length of time so as to minimise any potential advantage".
Annual checks are required.
Rossington competes in the seventh level of the women's football pyramid.
Needham wrote that the team has faced "challenges from teams unwilling to play against us while I am on the field".
Her statement added: "This unfortunate circumstance has prompted me to investigate pursuing a case of discrimination, as I believe it represents a breach of the code of conduct regarding diversity and inclusion, as well as safeguarding of adults in football established by both the Football Association and the Sheffield and Hallamshire Women and Girls League.
"Therefore, in the best interests of my club and my supportive teammates who stand beside me, I have made the decision to step down from playing football for the foreseeable future.
"This decision is rooted in the desire to safeguard the team and the club's trajectory.
"It's disheartening to acknowledge that this situation contradicts everything in the diversity and inclusion policies, given that I have diligently met every single requirement set out by the Football Association to play.
"I sincerely hope that this issue of perceived discrimination against me can be resolved peacefully and promptly, with the full support of the Football Association and the policies they have written and approved."
Needham said she did not want to comment further.

“Ours is much worse”, he continued
Everton cooperated with the PL for the investigation and City didn't tbf, so yeah the cases are different
+10 points
he's not wrong, one of them is a single breach, the other is 115 breaches.
Not comparable at all, Everton shall be deducted another 10 points for dragging the good name of the UAE royal families through the dirt.
''We got money for good lawyers''
Yeah yours seem waaaay worse
Well, you're right. City and Chelsea are 300% worse. But nothing will happen…
He's right, they are completely different. Man City have done far more damage.

By changing their name from "Redskins", the association claims that the Commanders have "dishonored" many years of Native American tradition and heritage.
I'm legit confused about how this is supposed to work, but I respect the heel turn on this particular grift for being extra funny.

A white supremacist shot three Black people at a supermarket in Florida today after stalking an HBCU so yes, I happen to think an officially licensed product of @utaustin that says 'Embrace the Hate' would seem a bit tone deaf. I'm funny that way. https://t.co/RtBYuGo33q

Context: Some foid accused footballer Jack Diamond of raping her. A jury of 9 women and 3 men took less than 15 minutes to clear him
Round 1
Before the verdict, the BBC put out a headline quoting the defence, upsetting Team #MeToo:
Why is the headline framing it as if this is a fact rather than simply the wording of his lawyer?
The use of quotation marks signifies that part of the headline is a quote, and not the news outlet's editorial opinion.
Why only choose the quote that automatically makes people believe he's innocent?
They don't only pick quotes that make him look innocent.
Case in point: www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-wear-67861047.amp
Round 2
Once the verdict was in, /r/soccer was very keen to discuss it. Team #MenToo quickly proved themselves illiterate as well, pointing to that other article the BBC put out last week.
Who were they quoting though? They might be quoting the judge for all we know.
Read the article and find out
We're talking about the impression given by a headline that was deliberately curated to give off such an impression.
I shouldn't have to read the article to find out that the impression the headline gives is false; that should be reflected in the chosen headline.
