Riley Gaines Center Launches 'Project BOYcott'

Riley Gaines, a former collegiate athlete and founder of the Riley Gaines Center, told Campus Reform she launched the initiative in response to the growing number of women’s athletes refusing to compete against a biological male.

”The decision by the five universities to forfeit their match against San José State is a powerful stand for fairness and safety in women’s sports. As more schools join the boycott, it’s clear that this movement is growing. It’s why I’ve launched “Project BOYcott” through the Riley Gaines Center at the Leadership Institute. We are here to support and empower women and girls to take a stand for truth. Through this initiative, we are celebrating those who dare speak up loudly and refuse to surrender their sports and spaces to men,” Gaines said. We stand with these athletes, and through Project BOYcott, we’ll continue to fight for the integrity of women’s sports.”
