The Fair Play for Women Act seeks to address persistent sex-based discrimination and unequal opportunities for women and girls in elementary, secondary, and higher education athletic programs. Building upon Title IX, the bill aims to ensure equal access to high-quality athletic opportunities and improve transparency regarding participation and support for women's sports. It targets State athletic associations, intercollegiate athletic associations, and federally funded educational institutions. A core provision of the bill prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex by these entities, covering aspects such as rules, sports offered, competition locations, facilities, and the distribution of goods, services, and revenues. Crucially, it establishes a private right of action , allowing individuals who experience discrimination to sue the responsible athletic association or educational entity in Federal or State court. Courts may award various forms of relief, including compensatory damages for financial injuries, emotional distress, and pain and suffering, as well as punitive damages and attorney's fees. To enhance transparency, the Act significantly expands athletics disclosure requirements for institutions of higher education, mandating detailed reporting on participant numbers, athletic scholarships, coaching compensation, and revenues and expenses, all disaggregated by sex and sport. It also requires elementary and secondary schools to report similar statistics, including student demographics, team expenditures, and coach salaries. The Secretary of Education will collect and make this information publicly available, and will publish biennial reports on gender equity trends. The bill also mandates annual training for employees and athletes to ensure awareness of Title IX rights and complaint procedures. State and intercollegiate athletic associations must train their employees on the bill's provisions, while educational institutions must train athletic department staff and athletes on Title IX rights and how to submit complaints to the Office for Civil Rights. Furthermore, the Secretary of Education is directed to establish a public database of Title IX coordinators. Finally, the Act introduces new administrative enforcement mechanisms, allowing the Secretary of Education to impose civil penalties on institutions or agencies found in non-compliance with its provisions or Title IX. For repeat offenders, the Secretary must require the submission of a public compliance plan. This legislation clarifies that these new provisions do not imply that athletic associations or educational entities were previously exempt from Title IX.
