“I’ve worked so damn hard for years just to get here. I showed up, I competed. I respected the sport every game, every single day,” van Leuven said. “And now, with just one decision, I’m being told I don’t belong anymore. This isn’t just about me. This is another huge hit for the trans community."

It feels like this is the thing that will demonstrate the lie about why all of this is happening but I know better.

So infuriating.

The governing body made the correct decision. Darts is not the most althletic sport, but it is athletic. Biological males have a huge advantage.

Was she barred from competing in the male competition? That would be injustice.

She can still play, right? Just play with the men. Nobodies stopping her from playing.

I've played darts. I'm not good at it. Still, I can't figure out what advantage they believe a transgender player has.
