New Hampshire Girls Soccer Team Boycotted Game With Transgender Player

(10-20-24) Bishop Brady High School in Concord, New Hampshire, girl’s soccer team boycotted a game last week against Kearsage Regional High School in North Sutton on Friday. Kearsage Regional is a public school with a girls’ soccer team that has a transgender player.  Kearsage is only one of two schools in New Hampshire with a player who is a biological male, despite a state law to prevent it.  The New Hampshire law requires all school athletes from 5th grade through high school to compete on teams that correspond to their biological sex at birth.

Maelle Jacques (Jr), is nearly 6-foot-0 in height and has been allowed to play goalie for Kearsage Regional despite a state law in New Hampshire that restricts transgender inclusion in girls’ sports. In September a federal judge’s ruling allowed Maelle to continue to participate and also allowed Maelle in the locker room.

Maelle also high jumps and won the New Hampshire Division II state title in the spring and plans to keep competing in Track and Field later this school year.

Heather Thyng, the mother of a Hillsboro-Deering player, told the NHJournal

“This isn’t about transgenderism. This is about biology for us and the increased physical risk when playing a full contact sport against the opposing sex.”
