Chess skyrocketed into the media spotlight this week after the world’s top chess federation, known as FIDE, said it will ban trans women from participating in women’s competitions until further analysis can be done – which could take up to two years. The policy would also see players who held women’s titles and later transitioned to male removed. But FIDE said it would possibly reinstate them if a person later changed the gender back to a woman. But the ECF, the governing chess organization in England, announced on social media that it will not exclude trans women despite FIDE’s policy.
