Transgender athletics runner Sadie Schreiner published a video on social networks last Sunday, saying that he was banned from American athletic events (USATF) at the USATF room championships Maine Association. The president of the USATF Maine said that Schreiner had participated in the event and that no disqualification had occurred.
Schreiner recorded the video when she was sitting near a campfire in the woods, darkly suggesting that the athlete had probably just participated in the last organized track meeting in the United States
“I most likely executed what will be my last meeting in the United States,” said Schreiner, adding later: “I will find a way to continue to compete, but I doubt it will be in the United States.”
Schreiner said that the USATF had changed its policy on the eligibility for transgenderness from that used by the International Olympic Committee (CIO), which allows organic men to participate in the female category, that used by global athletics, which prohibits any athlete who has undergone male puberty to compete as a woman.

Schreiner was a controversial figure in female athletics in the past year, in particular after an appearance at the outdoor athletics championships in Division III of NCAA III 2024 in May.
Earlier this month, Schreiner participated in the Liberty League championship and won the 200 and 400 female meters, broke the 400-meter record in the process. Schreiner would have finished more than two seconds last in male competition last.

Schreiner too expressed Against states and colleges that did not offer the trans athlete a full scholarship when Schreiner wanted to transfer in December. The athlete blamed laws in 25 states that prohibit trans athletes from competing with girls and women.
“Among all obstacle transfers, there is an additional layer because it is trans, 50% of the country forbidden me to participate and that meant that I could not attend any of these colleges even if they contacted me with a full stroll,” said Schreiner.
“It has also become clear that the United States, no matter how much the coaches had to have categorical to me, the college administrations would generally prevent them from allowing me to participate.”
