It is the intent of the Legislature that opportunities for participation in athletics be provided on as nearly an equal basis to male and female students as is practicable, and that comparable incentives and encouragements be offered to females to engage in athletics. It is the further intent of the Legislature that females be given the same opportunity to participate in athletics and compete with other females in individual and team athletics as is available to males who participate with other males in individual and team athletics.
