I feel this on so many levels. We dealt with headwear policies in sports all the time. These rules are so ridiculous. Let me say this as someone who has run the New York City Marathon five times while wearing my turban. Rules like these are unnecessary, exclusionary, and outdated

In case you're struggling, feel free to copy and paste this to your email: "Dear OHSAA, I was appalled to read the story of how you disqualified Noor Abukaram for wearing her hijab. It was wrong and hurtful, and we urge you to update your discriminatory policy immediately."

Sports should bring us together, not drive us apart. Look how beautiful this moment was, when opponents helped a Muslim woman whose hijab came off during a soccer match. This is sports at its best. This is what we should be striving for.https://twitter.com/GlennonDoyle/status/1187375143741513729 …

I just went at read the OHSAA rules and I couldn’t find anything about head ware in the document or about cross country or track and field specifically. It does say the coach is responsible for being in compliance, but I have no idea where their complain about the hijab is from:/

A colleague quoted the OHSAA rules and showed that, although there had been verbal mention of religious headgear at the end-of-year coaches' meeting, there is no written rule about it; the DQ was entirely NOT about any written rule or mandate. It was bigotry.

So they won’t take the high road and pioneer this change by reinstating her PB? Way to hide behind a couple of sentences in the “guidebook” there
