On Friday, William Bock III, a former general counsel for the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency and a lawyer with an impressive resume, resigned from his post at the NCAA, citing the organization’s refusal to protect girls’ sports.
Bock has served in the role for eight years and still has more than a year in his current term. But Bock has chosen to stand up for women and said he can no longer stomach the organization’s radical policies.
In a letter first obtained by the Washington Examiner, Bock shared, “Although I may not have agreed with the wisdom of every rule in the NCAA rulebook, I believed the intent behind the NCAA’s rules was competitive fairness and protection of equal opportunities for student-athletes.”
“This conviction has changed as I have watched the NCAA double down on regressive policies which discriminate against female student-athletes.”
Bock pointed to the NCAA’s three-phase participation policy implemented in 2022 allowing transgender student-athletes to play in their desired sports so long as they met certain requirements.
