Australian Women’s Soccer Team With Five Men Slaughters Competition. Critics Fume.

The losers in a soccer championship Down Under can fairly say the game doesn’t count.

For when Australia’s Flying Bats soccer team slaughtered the Macquarie Dragons in a recent match, the Bats had an unfair advantage. Five “trans women” were on the team. “Trans women” are men.

Understandably, parents are furious, as is a member of Parliament and an Australian mom who is fighting the science-deniers who believe men can become women simply because they “identify” as such.

The Game

The Bats shut out the Dragons 4-0 to win the Beryl Ackroyd Cup, an event sponsored by Northwest Sydney Football. The victory comes with a $1,000 prize.

But the Bats didn’t just win the final game, the Daily Mail reported. The team “won every game they played over the course of the four-week competition,” some by “huge winning margins,” with “one trans player scoring six goals in a 10-0 victory.”

“Furious parents have withdrawn their daughters from games due to safety concerns, telling News Corp that the women were unaware that they had signed up to compete against biological males,” the newspaper continued:

Club officials have also contacted Football NSW [New South Wales] to express their concerns, with some insisting that the Flying Bats should play in the mixed competition which includes men.

“Our girls are here to play for fun and expect to play in the female competition. They did not sign up for a mixed competition,” a senior club official told the Daily Telegraph.

“There’s no transparency from Football NSW, the girls don’t know if they are going to be playing biological males or not.

“Some of the parents were so concerned they would not let their daughters play. It was so disheartening for them to see the huge ­difference in ability — they’re killing it.”

Officially, the Flying Bats is the “the biggest LGBTQIA+ women’s and non-binary football club in the world,” it brags on its website.

The member of Parliament, libertarian John Ruddick, said the problem with competition isn’t just that fielding five men is unfair. It’s also unsafe, the Mail reported. 

“Flying Bats began as a lesbian club for same-sex attracted females,” Kirralie Smith of Binary Australia wrote on X:

Now they give spots to a 3rd of their team to males who appropriate womanhood. 

They beat the girls & took home $1000. 

Sex doesn’t appear to matter anymore to these same-sex attracted females 🤔

“Why have a female comp if males can play in it?” she asked in reposting Ruddick:

None of the football associations can tell us what a woman is but assure us transwomen are women! How can that be?

They threaten clubs with fines & legal action if they forfeit. How is that fair?

Soccer officialdom, she wrote, will “protect the fellas in female sport but show utter contempt toward the females who fear for their safety & are forced onto an unfair playing field.”

“There are 5, that’s right 5, males who identify as women in this team. How long until there are no females at all in women’s teams?” the For Women Scotland Sport X feed averred, “That is 5 women who were excluded from their sport and replaced by males.”

Former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines, a leader in the fight against men joining women’s college sports, called it what it is: five men cheating to win a women’s competition. Gaines’ war against the madness began when William Thomas, who calls himself Lia, was permitted to swim with women in NCAA competitions. He eventually “won” a Division I title.

Soccer officialdom, of course, is fine with the unfair play, the Daily Mail reported:

Football NSW continues to align with Football Australia’s adoption of the Australian Human Rights Commission’s “Guidelines for the inclusion of transgender and gender diverse people in sport,” under which, community players are permitted to participate in Football on the basis of the gender with which they identify.

Netherlands Darts

Australian soccer, of course, isn’t the only sport men who pretend to be women want to dominate. Men have also invaded women’s cycling, weightlifting, and track and field, and now, they’re after women’s darts.

“Two female darts players from the Netherlands have dropped out of the Dutch Women’s Team in response to the participation of a trans-identified male,” the Reduxx website reported:

Aileen de Graaf and Anca Zijlstra sent shockwaves through the sport after they both announced their departure, with the women no longer wanting to form a team with Noa-Lynn Van Leuven.

Zijlstra issued a statement revealing she would be stepping back after Van Leuven dominated the Women’s Series tournament yesterday, beating Zijlstra 4-0 and seizing the Series Title 2 from Ireland’s Katie Sheldon in the final round.

On Facebook, Zijlstra said what everyone else says about men who want to play in women’s competitions: It’s unfair.

“The moment I am ashamed to play for the Dutch Team, because a biological man plays for the women’s team, it is time to go,” she wrote on Facebook. “I have tried to accept this but I cannot condone this. I believe that in sports there should be an equal and fair playing field, which should be used and accepted in good faith.”
