The same argument for prohibiting men from competing in women's sporting events can be made for excluding women from the military or police.
As for a test of agility, there is always slalom skiing. The men’s Olympic record is ~5 seconds faster than the women's. The drop for the men's course is ~650 ft. over a run of ~quarter of a mile. The drop for the women's course is ~500 ft. over a run of ~fifth of a mile. The men are moving at ~50 mph, while the women are moving at ~40 mph. And the women also have proportionately fewer gaits to clear. In a head to head competition, she would still have ~75 ft to go on her shorter course when he completed his longer course.
