She refused acceptable options.

She and her mother say that is not true, and the officials kept changing the requirements.

I don't know who is telling the truth, but it does not appear to me that the unitard would give her a competitive advantage; if anything, the opposite.

I really don't see the problem, and the tone of some of the posts here is really rather offensive.

Again:

The girl chose a team sport - for which she would be expected to wear a team uniform.

Nobody is demanding she run and represent the school in the regular team uniform.

If she wants to be a member of the team - she must conform to the regulation uniform - therefore guaranteeing all competitors are equal.

It’s a team sport!

I don’t see her as having an advantage either but the rules committees set the guidelines and they wanted her in solid colors with lettering restrictions. They win.
