Sorry, you're confused. The WFTDA is not a league, its an association. Leagues have WFTDA level teams, as well as non sanctioned.

I stated that I personally feel that the WFTDA policy is too exclusive IMO, but that it is better than most sports.

My league (Rose City) consists of many teams that play against one another using a much more inclusive policy (though I'd like to see it become even better). Our All Star team has to follow the WFTDA policy in order to compete.

Another league I have been associated with (Mad Rollin Dolls) has an even more include policy than Rose, but their All Star team has to follow WFTDA policy.

The WFTDA policy, IMO, is not inclusive enough for derby. However, I feel that trumps the policies of other sports by more than just a little bit.

Like I said regarding testing, hormones, etc. I can't discuss this anymore. It's seriously raising my blood pressure. I promised myself I would pull out of cyclical discussions on the internet that cause my IRL anxiety a long time ago. Yay for mental health! (Basically, I feel like I'm repeating myself... A lot).
