Volleyball Player Injured By Trans-Identifying Player Hopes Speaking Up Will Prevent Further Tragedy

‘If only my rights as a female athlete had been more important than a man’s feelings,’ McNabb said.

Former volleyball star Payton McNabb — who was seriously injured by a trans-identifying biologically male opponent in high school — hopes that by speaking out she can aid in preventing further tragedies.

In a new documentary titled “Kill Shot: How Payton McNabb Turned Tragedy Into Triumph” — created by the Independent Women’s Forum — filmmakers share what happened to McNabb when she was 17 after a trans-identifying player spiked a volleyball at her head, knocking her unconscious, the New York Post reported.

While the other players on her team finished the game, McNabb was rushed to the hospital with a concussion, a neck injury, and two black eyes.

“If my story can in any way help prevent this from happening to at least just one woman or girl, then it was all worth it,” McNabb told the outlet about the documentary. “It was 100% avoidable, if only my rights as a female athlete had been more important than a man’s feelings.”

“Every single person that fights for truth, people absolutely attack them, but it doesn’t bother me because I know what I’m saying is common sense,” she added. “It’s not about me. I’m in this for women and girls.”
