RENO, Nev. (KOLO) – The Tahoe Truckee Unified School District has announced it will be moving its interscholastic athletics affiliation away from the NIAA to the California Interscholastic Federation.
The move will become effective at the start of the 2025-2026 school year.
In a letter to students and parents, the district said:
“Recent NIAA policy changes regarding student-athlete eligibility based solely on biological sex directly conflict with California laws protecting gender identity and expression, including AB 1955, which guarantees students’ rights to privacy and protects them from discrimination. Aligning with CIF ensures our compliance with state law.”
The TTUSD says it is working closely with the NIAA and the CIF to ensure a smooth transition.
