Why is this an issue for sport?

Currently, people are excluded from or discriminated against in sport because of their gender or sexual orientation. Sport is based on the idea that there are two clear and unchangeable genders (men/boys and women/girls), to which certain characteristics and abilities are often ascribed.
But the reality is more diverse. For example, there are trans* and intersex people or people who do not ascribe to either gender (non-binary). Grassroots sport has the task of being there for everyone and giving everyone access to sporting activity.
