former collegiate swimmer Riley Gaines has emerged as a powerful advocate for the integrity of women's sports. Poised beyond her years — she's 23 — Gaines has handled everything that the frothing, hate-filled advocate Left has thrown at her because she speaks the truth. She recently spoke before the House Oversight Committee and brilliantly smacked down an idiot Democrat who called her "transphobic." Another female NCAA athlete has been getting some attention for speaking truth to insanity. .. volleyball player Macy Petty spoke about her two biggest concerns regarding trans athletes, the first being a growing number of stolen opportunities...

A 17-year-old boy who claims to be a girl could become the first male athlete to receive a women’s scholarship in NCAA Division I sports, according to Reduxx. The outlet reported Wednesday that California resident Tate Drageset made a verbal commitment to play women’s volleyball at the University of Washington in June. If he signs the offer, he will claim one of 12 scholarships available for women on the team. Drageset, who plays for the Actyve Volleyball Club in Santa Monica, California, already has helped several girls volleyball teams to championships, according to Reduxx. He was named the MVP at...

In 2021, the Florida legislature passed, and Governor Ron DeSantis signed, the Fairness in Women's Sports Act, which prohibits biological males from participating in women's sports in Florida schools or clubs, and assesses civil fines for any school in the state, at any level, that violate the prohibition. The law was celebrated by many seeking to protect women's and girls' spaces in athletics. Apparently, however, one high school in Florida decided to test that law. And they just found out it has exactly the teeth that the legislature and DeSantis promised it did. Florida athletic board bans transgender volleyball player...

Allowing boys to play in girls' sports is a scourge in America. It not only erases young girls, it destroys their athletic hopes and dreams and puts them in serious physical danger. Examples of young women being seriously injured by their male counterparts increase nearly every week. It is undeniable that teenage boys in general possess natural physiological advantages over teenage girls, and we have seen the results of that over and over. But if that was not enough, the insanity has now reached the inevitable next level: humiliation. It is not enough anymore for boys to beat the girls,...

Nebraska volleyball's outdoor match against Omaha was attended by 92,003 setting a new world record for attendance at a women's sporting event. The Nebraska Athletic Department had history on its mind when it announced the one-of-a-kind event in February. Husker volleyball coach John Cook and Gov. Jim Pillen wore cowboy hats as they stood aside Athletic Director Trev Alberts and spilled the details of Volleyball Day in Nebraska. “We’re going to do this once,” Alberts said. “And I want to hope that the number is large enough that nobody dares even try to attack our all-time record.” One time was...

The male opponent hurled the volleyball at approximately 70 mph, according to the Daily Mail. One bystander claimed that it was “abnormally” fast, the publication said.

The school has escalated the situation by investigating the girls for bullying. I heard about this story last week, but the details were vague, so I left it alone, preferring to wait for more information. Now there’s more information, and the story is just as bad as I’d first heard: Girls on a high school volleyball team in Vermont were unhappy that there was a boy in their locker room. When they complained, the school said that, if they didn’t want to shower and change in front of a boy, they were free—all ten of them, to use a single...

“He just like looked at me with some pretty hateful eyes,” said Glass, who thought the man was about to hit the car she was standing near. Instead, the man flung a metal pipe that struck her in the face. Stitches were required to close the wound over her eye, she said. Bystanders came and held the man down until police arrived at the intersection of South Olive and West 8th streets and took him into custody. Glass said she had no previous interaction with the man and warned others to be ready for anything when out in public. “There’s...

Taliban militants allegedly beheaded a member of the Afghan junior women's national volleyball team, a coach told the Persian Independent. In an interview, coach Suraya Afzali (name changed) said a woman player named Mahjabin Hakimi was killed by the Taliban earlier in October, but nobody learnt about the gruesome murder as the insurgents had threatened her family not to talk about it. Mahjabin played for the Kabul Municipality Volleyball Club before the collapse of the Ashraf Ghani government, and was one of the club's star players. Then, a few days ago, pictures of what seemed to be her severed head...

Two women’s volleyball coaches at the University of Oklahoma argue in a legal motion that they have the right to discipline players for their political beliefs. Player Kylee McLaughlin sued coaches Lindsey and Kyle Walton along with the OU Board of Regents earlier this year, alleging “she had been excluded from the team […] over her politically conservative views.” The OU Daily reported that McLaughlin, the OU team captain and first team All-Big 12 selection in 2018 and 2019, had made comments that “at least one” of her teammates considered “racist” following a team viewing of the Netflix documentary “13th.”...

A Serbian volleyball player has been banned for two matches after making a racist gesture during a game against Thailand last week. Sanja Djurdjevic was pictured on camera narrowing her eyes with her fingers, causing outrage from fans online.

The federation has also been fined 20,000 Swiss francs (£15,832; $22,392). The money will be donated to "a cause tackling discriminatory behaviour and/or to fund educational programmes on cultural sensitivity for the global Volleyball Family," the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) announced...

A former University of Oklahoma volleyball player is suing the school, claiming that she was “frozen out” from the team due to her political beliefs. Kylee McLaughlin is suing the university and her former head coach Lindsey Gray-Walton and former assistant coach Kyle Walton. One of the complaints accuses the coaches of violating McLaughlin’s First Amendment rights. McLaughlin claims that last summer, the volleyball team watched a documentary called 13th, a show that deals with the issue of mass incarceration of blacks. After the viewing the team held a group discussion. McLaughlin stressed she felt “one hundred percent that slavery...

A pair of German volleyball stars who threatened to boycott an upcoming tournament in Qatar have won their case. Officials in charge of the Katara Beach Volleyball Cup, a tournament scheduled to take place in the Muslim nation of Qatar had planned to make competitors ditch their traditional bikini wear and don sand trousers instead. However, German volleyball stars Karla Borger and Julia Sude threatened to boycott the event unless they could wear their bikinis in the expected 85-90 degree heat. “We are there to do our job, but are being prevented from wearing our work clothes,” Borger reportedly told...

Two German beach volleyball stars will boycott a tournament in Qatar over the nation's refusal to allow female players to wear bikinis on the court. Karla Borger, who won a silver medal at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, and her doubles partner, Julia Sude, will not take part in the FIVB World Tour event in Doha as Qatar is "the only country" which mandates female players to wear shirts and long trousers.

Two former volleyball stars and their 12-year-old daughters have died after a 'DUI suspect' crashed into their van as they traveled to a tournament in Kansas City, Missouri. The vehicle crossed the median on Interstate 64 in St. Charles County, emerged into westbound lanes near Highway 364 and hit the minivan carrying the two families from Louisville, Kentucky head-on. The van then collided with an SUV at 10.38am Friday.

Modesty and Beach Volleyball Msgr. Charles Pope • August 14, 2016 • One of the less edifying aspects of the Summer Olympics in Rio is the attire of the women’s beach volleyball players from Western countries. Most of the women wear a tiny bikini with the bottom being especially tiny. (I do not show a picture here because I deem it immodest to do so. Instead, I show a picture of some of the men, whose attire I mention below.) Embed from Getty Images  Frankly, playing volleyball in a tiny bikini seems quite unnecessary. I would argue that it...
