A transgender pool player has lost a discrimination claim against one of the sport’s main organisers over its decision to ban those who were not born female from its women’s competitions and teams.
Professional player Harriet Haynes took the English Blackball Pool Federation (EBPF) to court over its introduction of new rules excluding anybody who was not assigned female at birth from its ladies’ events. In her claim, she said the move was “direct discrimination” against her on the grounds of her gender reassignment.
