Abstract:
In Canada, women’s soccer has continuously grown and developed, however women continue to be under represented in non-playing roles – particularly as referees (Canadian Heritage, 2013; Canadian Soccer Association, 2013a; Ontario Soccer Association, 2012). Of the 20,507 soccer referees in Canada, only 24% are women (Canadian Soccer Association, 2013a). Moreover, 54% of Canadian soccer referees are registered in Ontario (Ontario Soccer Association, 2012), of which only 9.5% are women (Ontario Soccer Association, 2013). This study explores the experiences of women who continue to referee despite their under-representation within the refereeing domain, in an effort to identify the benefits and challenges of being a woman soccer referee in Ontario. I employed a feminist lens to guide the development and design of the research agenda, alongside Michel Foucault’s concept of the subject. The results of this exploration uncovered that the woman soccer referee subject comes to recognize and understand herself and her role as a referee through the discourse of ability and the discourse of the outsider. These discourses emerged from the ways in which the subject constructed becoming a referee, being a referee (benefits and challenges), continuing to referee, and being a woman soccer referee. Resultantly, the woman soccer referee is primarily motivated to continue to referee by her competence to perform according to the ideals and practices of “the referee” that she learns through both education and experience. However, as woman she is an outsider within the soccer community and comes to internalize her subordination and normalize sexism within the refereeing domain and soccer community at large in order to be accepted and respected within her position as “the referee”. Using the results of analysis I also make recommendations for increasing the number of women that choose to continue, as well as boost the notoriety of women soccer referees within the refereeing domain.

The knee Injuries in Women Soccer Players in South Africa The Knee is a common site for injuries in soccer players. The reasons for the increased rates of knee injuries in women soccer players are not clear, but some theories suggested the reason to lie in the difference in anatomy. This research investigate the prevalence of knee injuries in women soccer players in South Africa and sought to find out whether three of the anatomical factors (Q-angle, pelvic width and Intercondylar notch width) have a role in increasing knee injuries in these individuals. The study design was case –control study. Methodology: Twenty four players of South Africa women soccer team (Under 23) participated in this study. X-rays of the hip were taken and the Q-angles were thereafter measured manually. Association between anatomical factors and knee injuries were determined. The result of this study showed that 17% of the players were having non contact knee injuries. Statistical analysis showed no significant relation between knee injuries among women soccer players and each of the anatomical factors. The P-values of both t-test and ANOVA test were larger than the 0.05 level of significance. The study found that the prevalence of knee injuries among the young women playing for the South African national team U-23 was relatively high. However, this study could not identify significant relationship between the anatomical risk factors and the incidences of knee injuries among the participants.

Abstract:
During the Apartheid era in South Africa, women were marginalized from sport. The ability to participate in sport in South Africa is inherently linked to the political history of the country. Sport played a dynamic role in the struggle against the diabolical system of apartheid in South Africa and has a powerful role to play in the transformation and nation building of South Africa. Women have made great strides in sport in recent years in South Africa. However, at times we find that there is unfair media coverage. The unfair coverage of women’s sport displays gender based attitudes which systematically disadvantage women’s position in society. Women’s participation in sport has grown dramatically but despite this growth coverage of women in sport remains inferior. This research study investigated the marginalization of women in soccer in the Gelvandale area, Port Elizabeth. The objective of this study is to investigate if women are being marginalised in Gelvandale where soccer is concern as well as determining the meaning of gender inequality from an anthropological perspective within the context of soccer in the Gelvandale area. Further, to contribute within the anthropology of soccer in South Africa particularly in the Eastern Cape Province and to come up with recommendations that will contribute towards improvement of soccer in Gelvandale and beyond.

Abstract:
Several studies conducted on home advantage in sport have focused on game location and performance outcome. The purpose of this study was to examine three components of home advantage, such as the effect that game location has on self-efficacy, a critical psychological state, and assertive play, a critical behavioral state. Participants (N = 21) from one mid-sized, midwest, Division I soccer program completed the Modified State Sport-Confidence Inventory (MSSCI) prior to six home conference games and six away conference games. In addition, all 12-conference games were observed and coded according to four assertive behaviors of soccer players. Data were analyzed using a permutation test and Spearman's Rho with a level of significance set at .05. Results indicated there was no significant difference in self-efficacy between home and away games and no significant difference in assertive play between home and away games. No significance relationship was found for self-efficacy and assertive play. Possible limitations along with recommendations for the future are discussed.

Resumo: A prática do futebol por mulheres historicamente é matizada por episódios de concessões, infiltrações, transgressões e conquistas. Embora as mulheres tenham estado presentes em todas as etapas da sociogênese do futebol, protagonizando inserções tanto como espectadoras quanto na condição de praticantes, o espaço e a visibilidade destinados ao futebol feminino evidenciam a inocuidade dessa prática como campo de atuação profissional. À luz desse cenário, o objetivo desta pesquisa consistiu em analisar os projetos de jogadoras e de "clubes" para a efetivação do futebol como carreira profissional, bem como a normatização legal dos vínculos futebolísticos dessas atletas. Para esse fim, realizou-se um estudo de caso com três equipes que disputaram o Campeonato Paulista de Futebol Feminino de 2011, por meio de um diário de campo, entrevistas semiestruturadas com dirigentes e treinadores (as) e grupos focais com atletas. As equipes analisadas revelam disparidades estruturais permeadas pelas representações dos diferentes sujeitos, que sinalizam para distanciamentos e aproximações de uma atividade profissional. Os projetos das jogadoras pesquisadas evidenciam o reconhecimento do exercício profissional, porém circunscritos pelos impedimentos da falta de estrutura e da formalização dos vínculos empregatícios. Em contrapartida, pela análise da legislação podemos identificar que as jogadoras exercem atividade profissional de fato, explicitando a ilegalidade dos mecanismos de formalização dos vínculos firmados pelos seus clubes, quando estes não cumprem com as garantias às quais as atletas fariam jus por direito. Tendo em vista a legitimação da profissão de futebolista para as mulheres, indicamos a necessidade de a CBF, federações e clubes afiliados garantirem a sustentabilidade do futebol feminino, com a organização de competições e a manutenção de equipes de mulheres nos clubes que mantêm o futebol profissional atualmente
Abstract: Women's football practice is historically marked by concessions, infiltrations, and transgressions and conquers. Although women have been present in every stage of football's sociogenesis, taking part as spectators and also practicing it, the space and visibility given to women's football highlight the innocuousness towards the sport as a career plan. Bearing such scenario, this research aims to analyze the clubs and players projects towards football as a real career plan, as well as the legal regularization of the employment relationship of the athletes. For this purpose, it was done a case study with three teams disputing the women's football Paulista Championship in 2011, by means of field diary, semi-structured interviews with directors and coaches, and focus groups with athletes. The analyzed teams showed structural disparities permeated by different issues that lead to a detachment and closeness of a professional career. The players' project shows the recognition of the sport as a professional career, nevertheless surrounded by barriers, and lack of structure and employment legitimacy. On the other hand, by analyzing the legislation, it is possible to identify that the players act in fact professionals, highlighting the illegality of the clubs employment relationship, once they do not meet the standards and rights granted by the legislation to the players. Considering the legitimacy of women's football as a career, we point to the need of CBF, federations and affiliated clubs, to grant sustainability for women's football by organizing championships and helping towards women's teams in clubs that currently maintain professional teams

Abstract:
Precooling is a method used to decrease initial pre-exercise core temperature in order to facilitate a greater margin for heat production before a maximum core temperature is reached. The purpose of this study was to examine the differences in physiological and perceptual effects of precooling using beverages of three different temperatures: room temperature beverage (24.88 ± 1.13°C), cold beverage (6.15 ± 3.16°C) and ice slushy (-1.61 ± 0.45°C) in a hot environment (27.88 ± 0.72°C and 35.36 ± 0.83°C for wet globe bulb temperature and dry bulb temperature respectively). For all trials the environmental temperature was set to 35°C with 56% rh. For this study, 10 physically active females (age= 23.7 ± 2.26 years, height=1.74 ± 0.23 m, weight=66.27 ± 0.92 kg, BMI=24.14 ± 2.63 kg/m2, body fat= 22.99 ± 2.37% and VO2 max= 43.61 ± 4.78 ml/kg/min) participated in the study. On three separate occasions participants precooled via beverage consumption over a 30-minute period with a 5-minute rest period before beginning a 45-minute interval treadmill protocol. Following exercise, participants then re-cooled for 15 minutes. Each subject precooled and re-cooled with all three beverages at their respective temperature. Treatments were randomized. There were no significant differences found for TGI during precooling, exercise or re-cooling Mean HR and mean TSK during precooling were significantly lower in the ice slushy trial as compared to the room temperature trial (HR = 75.7 ± 15.7 and 80.1 ± 16.4 bpm; respectively, p < 0.05 ; TSK = 34.47 ± 0.74 and 34.21 ± 0.92ºC; respectively, p < 0.05). There was also a significant difference in thermal sensation during precooling among all three beverage temperatures (Thermal sensation = 4.7 ± 0.7, 4.5 ± 0.7 and 4.0 ± 0.7; for room, cold, and ice slushy respectively, p < 0.05). Mean thirst sensation for ice slushy was also significantly lower during precooling when compared to cold (p < 0.05) and room temperature beverages (p < 0.05). Mean thirst sensation was also significantly lower during exercise for ice slushy compared to cold (p < 0.05) and room temperature (p < 0.05) (precooling thirst sensation= 2.3 ± 1.0, 2.1 ± 1.1 and 1.6 ± 1.0; exercise 4.1 ± 2.0, 4.5 ± 1.7 and 3.2 ± 1.6 for room, cold and ice slushy respectively). During re-cooling mean thirst sensation was significantly lower for ice slush as compared to room temperature (p < 0.05). Results from the current study suggest that precooling with an ice slushy as compared to a cold or room temperature beverage had little to no effect on TGI and a small effect on HR and TSK during precooling. Although, precooling with an ice slushy appeared to be effective at decreasing perceptual measurements.

Abstract:
The assessment of strength and power and the relationship of these measures to functional variables such as speed and vertical jump ability are understood poorly. This is particularly the case when dealing with a long-term preparation for a major event in a sport such as women's soccer. The results of this research suggest that a number of isoinertial speed strength measures may be sensitive to aspects of a training program and therefore be useful tools for determining the level of development of various underlying neuromuscular capacities. Further results provide a question mark about the role of maximum strength in the development of high velocity functional movements, as increases in maximum strength did not correlate to changes in measures of functional performance. An important finding from this research is the potential role of specific isoinertial speed strength parameters in the detection of neuromuscular fatigue. Time course analysis of the results in this study suggests that the use of these measures to detect fatigue warrants further investigation.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Fysisk smärta kan försämra både fysisk och psykisk förmåga samt leda till flertalet komplikationer. Smärta är ofta sammankopplat med skador. Skador är vanliga bland idrottare, och skaderisken ökar ju högre nivå man spelar på. Då skador är så pass vanliga bland idrottare på hög nivå så kan man anta att detsamma gäller med smärtkänningar. Eftersom smärta kan påverka en negativt på så många sätt så kan det vara intressant att undersöka smärta bland idrottare på hög nivå. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att undersöka upplevelsen av smärta samt relationen till smärta hos kvinnliga fotbollsspelare på hög nivå i Sverige. Metod: 68 från 4 olika lag i division 1 och 2 deltog i studien. De var mellan 14-30 år gamla och hade spelat på hög nivå mellan 1-13 år. En enkät användes för att samla datan och SPSS användes för att analysera den med deskriptiv statistik. Resultat: 50 % av spelarna skattade deras smärtutsträckning före, under och efter träning och match med 3 eller mer på en skala mellan 1-5, där 1 är "ingen utsträckning" och 5 är "hög utsträckning". Resultaten varierade angående vilken influens smärta haft på försktighet, förmåga, potential, känslor och koncentration. Spelarna kände dock att smärta haft störst påverkan på deras förmåga att spela och deras emotionella välmående. 42.65 % av spelarna fortsatte som vanligt när de upplevde smärta under träning och 44.12 % av dem fortsatte men tog det lugnare, medan 83.83 % fortsatte som vanligt när de upplevde smärta under match. Samtliga av deltagarna var av uppfattningen att det kan vara skadligt på olika sätt att spela trots att man känner smärta. Slutsats: De flesta av spelarna var negativt påverkade av smärta i någon grad. Även om de var övertygade om att det kan leda till problem om man spelar trots smärta så fortsatte de flesta att spela när de fick smärtkänningar under träning och match.
Background: Physical pain affects mental performance as well as many physical factors and is often associated with injuries. Injuries are common among athletes and a higher level of play coheres with a higher prevalence of injuries. Since injuries are so common among high-level athletes, it is reasonable to assume that pain is also connected to the high level of play. Also, since experiencing pain has its side-effects, it is interesting to investigate physical pain among high-level athletes. Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the presence and experience of pain among high-level female soccer players in Sweden, as well as their relationship to pain. Method: 68 players between 14-30 years old who had played at a high level for 1-13 years participated in the study. A questionnaire was used to collect the data and SPSS was used to analyse it with descriptive statistics. Results: 50 % of the players rated their pain extent before, during and after practices and games with 3 or more on a scale from 1-5, where 1 is “no extent” and 5 is “high extent”. The results were scattered regarding the influence pain had on carefulness, ability, potential, emotions and concentration, but the players felt that pain had the biggest influence on their ability to play and their emotional wellbeing. 42.65% of the players continue as normal when experiencing pain during practice and 44.12% of them continue but take it easier, while 83.82% continue as normal when experiencing pain during game. All of them thought that playing and practicing with pain could lead to future complications in some way. Conclusion: Most of the players struggled with pain to varying degrees. Even though being convinced that playing with pain can lead to complications, they kept on playing when they experienced pain themselves.

Full text
Abstract:
High among the mountains and olive groves of Israel's Western Galilee, a group of Palestinian women regularly meet to do something unexpected. They play soccer. In Israel. Banat Sakhnin is the only Palestinian women's soccer team in the Israeli league. The players, coaches, and manager are Israeli citizens, but represent a minority within the Jewish state. As such, the women who play for Banat Sakhnin face challenges from multiple sides. This dissertation argues that Palestinian women's access to soccer in Israel is intimately tied to complex and contradictory community and national ideas about Palestinian-ness. Women's participation in an overtly physical activity puts their bodies on public display to be symbolically constituted as versions of "Palestinians," "Israelis," or an amalgamation of both. Additionally, soccer's reputation as a male sport in Israel further complicates women's access to it as players or as fans. This dissertation is based on intensive field research conducted from January 2006-December 2007. The interviews, stories, archival research, newspaper articles, and personal experience I collected revealed a complex picture of what life might be like for young Palestinian women who play soccer in Israel. I found that soccer players face limitations placed upon them by their coach and manager in the form of protectiveness and monitoring of their "propriety." I found that they face limitations from their families and communities who view soccer as a "hobby" that should end when the players marry. The team itself faces financial difficulties, because of a lack of popular interest in women's soccer, and a lack of commitment by the governing bodies of soccer in Israel. Yet, the players are not fully passive, and find ways to pursue their own goals around these structural and cultural limitations. This research contributes to the anthropology of women and power in the Middle East and the sociology and anthropology of soccer. Scholarship on women's soccer in the Middle East has focused on women's role in Islam. I suggest that this focus overshadows other gendered, cultural, and political barriers faced by women in Middle Eastern countries. The story of Banat Sakhnin adds to research about women's lives in the Middle East and Israel, because it focuses on female athletes playing a sport perceived to belong to the realm of men. It explores the ways in which the players' transgression of this gendered norm shapes and transforms other kinds of ideas about "Palestinian-ness" and "womanhood" in Israel.

Abstract:
The growing body of literature on women's football has focused mainly on the development of the game and experiences of past and present players. Despite the emergence of research on women's football internationally there has not yet been exclusive attention to either of these areas in the Scottish context. Using an interpretive framework this thesis is organised around four main themes: the development of women's football in Scotland; socio-demographic characteristics of women footballers; the process of socialisation; and, the subculture of women's football. The synthesis of elements within the interpretive framework ensures that the research offers an interpretation that is both contextualised historically and informed by an understanding of the meaning of football in the context of players' private lives. In relation to the history of the game, the development of women's football in Scotland has indeed been shaped by the particular Scottish context. The research concludes that the socialisation of women into football in Scotland is an interactive and often a reciprocal process. The subculture of women's football in Scotland is characterised by three interlocking group cultures. The meaning of football in players' lives influences the nature of their individual membership to these group cultures and the importance they attach to elements of subcultural capital. The various meanings attached to football give rise to potential sources of tension between the dominant, emergent and residual elements of culture within the subculture. This original theoretically and empirically informed study of women's football in Scotland makes a contribution to the growing body of research on women's football and to our understanding of the social and historical significance of sport in Scottish society.

Abstract:
“The Future of Football is Feminine”: A Critical Cultural History of the U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team,focuses on the historical and cultural construction of the U.S. women’s national soccer team. The public and academic discourse that constitutes women’s soccer in the U.S. consistently links the game with the feminist legislation of Title IX, and positions male coaches as benevolent patriarchs who grant young girls and women the right to play. The combination of these two dominant narratives confronts the historical narrative of women’s soccer from an uncritical and celebratory space, which represses and decenters lines of power. I challenge these steadfast discourses by locating this team, and thus, women’s soccer, in the larger cultural frame of neoliberal, postfeminist, post-racial, and sexual politics. Through an examination of U.S. newspapers and magazines, United States Soccer Federation (USSF) and Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) documents, and extensive soccer-specific journals and magazines, I explore the intersection of capitalism, feminism, and racism in women’s professional sport. This research also examines how the media and other corporations have cultivated the U.S. women’s national team and its individual stars, such as Mia Hamm, Brandi Chastain, Kristine Lilly, Abby Wambach, and Hope Solo to promote themselves as consumer conduits through which moral and ethical behaviors circulate and influence civil society. Since the mid-1990s, young female soccer players find themselves at an ideological crossroad of individual choice and self-discipline. The soccer field has been promoted as a space of gender and racial inclusion as well as economic and political freedom while subtly reinforcing the exact opposite. Moreover, I examine the historical and ever-shifting landscape of women’s soccer, and how neoliberalism as an economic and cultural theory is central to the use of race, class, gender, and sexual ideologies to develop women’s soccer in the United States.

Abstract:
Essa dissertação tem como objetivo analisar a trajetória esportiva de Eduarda Marranghello Luizelli (Duda) como jogadora de futebol e como dirigente atuando na formação de atletas. Para tanto está fundamentada em marcos teóricos relacionados à participação das mulheres no esporte, mais especificamente no futebol considerando narrativas biográficas. A metodologia utilizada tem um viés qualitativo com fundamentação teórica e metodológica na Historia Oral, utilizada como procedimento para a produção de fontes, tendo como foco a História de Vida. Foram realizadas 16 entrevistas com pessoas que mantém relação com a trajetória da Duda como familiares, ex-jogadoras de futebol e profissionais que atuam na escolinha esportiva que dirige. Estas entrevistas foram cotejadas com outros documentos, muitos deles integrantes do acervo pessoal da própria Duda e desse diálogo emergiram dois capítulos intitulados: Primeiro tempo: Duda jogadora e Segundo tempo: Duda dirigente. O primeiro eixo temático discute como se deu a inserção de Duda na modalidade e como consolidou sua trajetória como jogadora de futebol. O segundo eixo temático diz respeito a sua atuação como dirigente de uma escolinha de futebol. A partir das análises percebeu-se que o apoio familiar foi determinante para sua permanência e continuidade na modalidade, assim como, auxiliou ao longo de toda sua trajetória esportiva. Foi possível verificar que suas experiências no futebol italiano e na seleção brasileira, além de proporcionar momentos de realização, foram marcadas por dificuldades e frustrações. Observouse que sua trajetória no Sport Club Internacional foi permeada de lutas e vitórias em prol do esporte destacando Duda como referência da modalidade. Também foi possível observar que Duda transformou seu nome em uma marca através de sua Escola e consolidou sua representatividade na modalidade como formadora de atletas. Algumas tensões foram evidenciadas no que diz respeito ao gerenciamento esportivo por parte das mulheres, especificamente na ausência das mesmas em cargos de liderança. Conclui-se que Duda foi e ainda é uma das fomentadoras da modalidade no Rio Grande do Sul, sua representatividade como jogadora de futebol influenciou na carreira de muitas atletas e apesar dos obstáculos e das adversidades enfrentadas, sua trajetória esportiva é reconhecida no cenário nacional.
This thesis aims to analyze the sporting career of Eduarda Marranghello Luizelli (Duda) as a soccer player and as a director working in the training of athletes. The study is based on theoretical frameworks related to women's participation in sport, specifically in soccer considering biographical narratives. The methodology has a qualitative bias with theoretical and methodological foundation in Oral History, used as a procedure for the production of sources, focusing on the history of life. It was conducted 16 interviews with people who maintain a relationship with the Duda’s life trajectory as family members, former players and soccer professionals working in the soccer schools that she runs. These interviews were collated with other documents, many of them part of Duda’s personal collection, and this dialogue emerged two chapters entitled: First time: Duda player and second time: Duda director. The first main theme discusses how was Duda’s inclusion in the sport and how consolidated her career as a soccer player. The second main theme relates to Duda’s role as a director of a soccer school. From the analysis it was realized that family support was the key to the permanence and continuity in the sport, as well as helped throughout her sporting career. It was possible to verify that her experiences in Italian soccer and the Brazilian national team, not only provided realization of moments, but also they were marked by difficulties and frustrations. It was observed that Duda’s career in the Sport Club International was fraught with struggles and victories for the sport as highlighting her name as a women’s soccer reference. It was also noted that Duda turned her name into a brand through her schools and consolidated her representation in the sport as a trainer of athletes. Some tensions were evident with regard to sports managed by women, especially in the absence of females in leadership positions. It is concluded that Duda was and still is one of the women’s soccer developer in Rio Grande do Sul, and that her representation as a soccer player influenced the careers of many athletes and despite the obstacles and adversities faced, her sporting career is recognized on the national scene.

The thesis Soccer and gender in Bahia: permanent concerns (1970 - 1990) has the objective of telling and propagading the histories of footballers women in the hinterland of Bahia between the 1970s and 1990s, it aims to break down the silence and invisibility of them, aspects that are very usual in the history of Brazilian women's football. Oral history was the method used in the interviews with women who revealed their everyday sociability, their struggles, in short, their stories in the sport. These stories show that women's football in Bahia was expanding during the 80s. The hypothesis that guided this study was based on the notion that prejudice is a propeller of so many silencies. The testimony of the following women contributed to this research: Maria da Conceicao Araujo, Nara Rúbia Muniz Chaves Pinheiro, Maria Cruz Neide Sampaio, Jorge Sampaio Suely Ribeiro Morbek, Cleyde Regina Araujo, Neumanci Gonçalves Ferreira, Ferreira de Oliveira Ivonete Solange Santos and Bastos. Based on the investigations, this study discloses the stories of women players allowing to follow the path took by the women's football in Bahia. The history starts with the incipient babas in Jequié in the 70s until his alleged consolidation in the 80s, well represented by players from Feira de Santana, it also includes a part of the history of the Brazilian Women's Soccer team during the 90s, based on the interview of Solange S. Bastos. Based on contributions from studies in the areas of History, History of Physical Education and Gender has been possible to articulate stories of footballer women with issues such as prejudice, lack of infrastructure and credibility, issues that marked the history of the sport in the country. Soccer has been considered a space that celebrates virility and strength, male attributes, in such that it took lots of dedication and courage for women to get in this well kept places, places where female participation "should" allowed only in the stands. However, with the boldness and strength, they invade the lawns and keep on pushing to make soccer, in fact, a plural and democratic environment that represents a national history
A tese Futebol e gênero na Bahia: inquietações permanentes (1970 - 1990) teve como objetivo relatar e socializar histórias de mulheres futebolistas no interior baiano no período em destaque, buscando quebrar a invisibilidade e o silenciamento, aspectos tão presentes na história do futebol feminino brasileiro. Para a realização do estudo, a História Oral foi o método que viabilizou a concretização de entrevistas com mulheres que revelaram seu cotidiano, sociabilidades, suas lutas, enfim suas histórias no esporte, mostrando um futebol feminino baiano em expansão durante a década de 80. A hipótese que norteou esse trabalho se baseou no preconceito como aspecto basilar propulsor de tantos silenciamentos. Assim, contribuíram com seus depoimentos para essa pesquisa: Maria da Conceição Araújo, Nara Rúbia Muniz Chaves Pinheiro, Maria Neide Cruz Sampaio, Jorge Sampaio, Suely Morbek Ribeiro, Cleyde Regina Araújo, Neumanci Ferreira Gonçalves, Ivonete Ferreira de Oliveira e Solange Santos Bastos. Democratizar histórias de mulheres futebolistas justificou esse estudo que, com base nas investigações, tornou possível acompanhar o percurso percorrido pelo futebol feminino na Bahia, desde os incipientes babas em Jequié nos anos 70, até sua pretensa consolidação na década de 80, bem representado pelas jogadoras feirenses, como contar uma parte da história da Seleção Brasileira Feminina de Futebol durante os anos 90, a partir da entrevista com Solange S. Bastos, a Soro da Seleção. Partindo de contribuições dos estudos nas Áreas da História, História da Educação Física e Gênero, foi possível articular histórias de mulheres do futebol com questões como o preconceito, falta de estrutura e credibilidade que marcaram a história desse esporte no país. Tido como espaço que celebra a virilidade e força, atributos considerados masculinos, foi preciso dedicação e ousadia para a mulher se inserir nesse espaço reservado, no qual a participação feminina deveria se estabelecer apenas nas arquibancadas. No entanto, com a ousadia e resistência elas invadiram os gramados e continuam exercendo tensões para que o futebol, de fato, seja realmente um ambiente plural e democrático e que represente uma história nacional

O objetivo deste estudo é analisar o conteúdo dos textos publicados na revista Placar, sobre a seleção brasileira de futebol feminino, nos anos de Mundial (1991, 1995, 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011, 2015) e Jogos Olímpicos (1996, 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012), duas das principais competições desta modalidade. Para atingir os resultados, utilizaram-se os aportes teórico-metodológicos da Análise de Conteúdo, que direcionou a análise dos textos jornalísticos. Encontrou-se 58 publicações mencionando a seleção brasileira feminina, dispostas em 34 das 130 edições a que se obteve acesso. Tendo em vista o número de edições e de textos publicados ao longo dos 12 anos analisados, constatou-se a baixa frequência de publicações sobre a seleção feminina de futebol na revista Placar, comparado a outras modalidades, sobretudo, o futebol masculino. Além disso, na análise do conteúdo dos textos verificou-se que a revista fez alusões acerca de categorias como gênero, classe, raça e etnia quando tratam das jogadoras da seleção. A partir de 2004, os conteúdos passaram a enfatizar a representação da seleção brasileira de futebol feminino pelas jogadoras Marta e Cristiane, as quais são exaltadas pela revista Placar, devido à atuação das atletas na seleção e às conquistas no universo futebolístico. Por meio deste estudo, pode-se concluir que a Placar reflete em seu conteúdo as lutas das jogadoras de futebol, ao relatar as trajetórias e as dificuldades das atletas que efetivamente representaram a seleção brasileira de futebol feminino nas competições. No entanto, reforçam o preconceito em relação a elas, na medida em que comparam a outras jogadoras (modelos), as quais possuem os padrões de gênero, classe e raça normativos hegemônicos. Os termos utilizados pela revista, para referir-se as jogadoras da seleção, são essencialistas e demonstram implicitamente as estratégias de espetacularização dos corpos, as quais foram ofertadas pelo campo jornalístico e esportivo, bem como utilizadas pelas atletas na tentativa de ganhar legitimidade. Compreende-se que a baixa frequência de aparição da seleção feminina na revista resultou na invisibilidade do futebol feminino frente ao público leitor.
The objective of this study is to analyze the content of the texts, published in the magazine Placar about the Brazilian women's soccer team in World Cup years (1991, 1995, 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011, 2015) and Olympic Games (1996, 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012), two of the main competitions of this modality. To reach the results, the theoretical-methodological contributions of the Content Analysis were used, which directed the examination of journalistic texts. There were 58 publications mentioning the Brazilian female soccer team, arranged in 34 of the 130 editions that were accessed. Considering the number of editions and texts published during the 12 years analyzed, the low frequency of publications about the female soccer team in the magazine Placar was verified, when compared to other modalities, specially, the masculine soccer. Moreover, in the analysis of the content of the texts it was also verified that the magazine alluded about categories such as gender, class, race and ethnicity when dealing with the players of the women‟s team. From 2004, the contents emphasize the representation of the Brazilian women's soccer team by exposing Marta and Cristiane, who are exalted by the magazine, because of the performance of these athletes in the team and their individual achievements. Through this study, it is possible to conclude that Placar reflects the fight of the female players soccer when reporting trajectories and difficulties of athletes that effectively represented the Brazilian female team on competitions. However, the magazine reinforces the prejudice, in order to compare those athletes to others female players soccer (models), which represent the normative hegemonic standards of gender, class and race. The terms used by the magazine to refer to the players of the team are essentialist and demonstrate the strategies of spectacularization of the bodies which were offered by the field of journalism and sports, as well as used by the athletes in attempt to gain legitimacy. It is understood that the low frequency of appearance of women's team in the magazine resulted in the invisibility of women's football among the public.

The aim of this dissertation is to verify and analyze quantitatively and qualitatively the coverage news about Brazil women's national football team made in the sports section of Folha de S. Paulo newspaper between 1991 and 2011, in an attempt to unravel if underneath the publications made in this temporality existed an intention to criticize the women's game and its players. To that end, was opted for the adoption of procedures of the so called content analysis methodology, as for it provides instruments to the researchers on analysis of several types of discourses, among those, the ones found in newspapers. Through the above mentioned delimitations, it was found that over the twenty (20) years investigated, Folha de S. Paulo published six hundred and twenty-two (622) features, addressing or somehow referring to the women's team. From the analysis of these figures, it was found that the frequency of files related to the Brazilian team on the newspaper sports pages was low, with an average of 31.1 publications per year. However, when analyzing the discursive content of the reports, it was found that despite not providing great visibility, Folha de S.Paulo did not treat the women's team and its players with prejudice, lowering them in status in relation to the men's team and its players. On the contrary, its coverage was characterized by explicit and implicit exaltation of national teams and players, exerting positive influence in the structuring of an individual and social habitus, free of prejudices related to the possibilities of women in football. This aspect refutes the fourth hypothesis (4th) of this study, which conveyed the idea that concealed under the discursive content of the publications; there had been the intention of Folha de S.Paulo in criticizing women's football and its players, in so far as this sport form was socially structured as a male and masculinizing realm.
O objetivo desta dissertação é verificar e analisar quantitativamente e qualitativamente a cobertura acerca da seleção brasileira de futebol feminino realizada pelo caderno de esporte da Folha de S.Paulo, entre 1991 e 2011, intentando desvendar se subjacente as publicações efetivadas nesta temporalidade existiu a intencionalidade de criticar o futebol feminino e as suas jogadoras. Para tanto, optou-se pela adoção dos procedimentos da metodologia denominada Análise de Conteúdo, pois ela instrumentaliza os pesquisadores nas análises dos diversos tipos de discursos, dentre eles o jornalístico. Por meio das delimitações supracitadas, constatou-se que ao longo dos vinte (20) anos pesquisados, a Folha de S.Paulo publicou seiscentas e vinte e duas (622) matérias, abordando ou mencionando de alguma forma a seleção feminina. A partir da análise deste número, constatou-se que a periodicidade de matérias relacionadas à equipe brasileira nas páginas esportivas do jornal foi baixa, média de 31,1 publicações por ano. Entretanto, ao analisar o conteúdo discursivo das matérias, verificou-se que mesmo não proporcionando uma grande visibilidade, a Folha de S.Paulo não tratou a seleção feminina e as suas jogadoras de maneira preconceituosa, inferiorizando-as em relação à seleção masculina e os seus jogadores. Ao contrário, a sua cobertura caracterizou-se pela exaltação explícita e implícita das equipes nacionais e das futebolistas, influindo positivamente na estruturação de um habitus individual e social ausente de preconceitos relacionados às possibilidades das mulheres no futebol. Este aspecto refuta a quarta hipótese (4a H) desta pesquisa, a qual externou a ideia de que subjacente ao conteúdo discursivo das publicações havia a intencionalidade da Folha de S.Paulo em criticar o futebol feminino e as suas jogadoras, na medida em que esta modalidade foi socialmente estruturada enquanto um campo masculino e masculinizante.

Abstract:
La presente tesis doctoral tiene los siguientes objetivos: 1. Describir las características estructurales de los clubes de fútbol femenino en la ciudad de Barcelona; 2. Conocer el perfil de las personas vinculadas a dichos clubes, así como las relaciones internas y externas del club; 3. Analizar la posición de los equipos femeninos y las mujeres dentro del conjunto del club; y 4. Proponer una clasificación de los clubes en función de la situación del equipo o equipos femeninos dentro del club a partir de las teorías feministas y una clasificación a partir de las características estructurales de los clubes. El estado de la cuestión se ha desarrollado sobre tres grandes ejes: el género y la construcción social del deporte, con especial énfasis en el análisis del fútbol; el papel de los clubes en el contexto de las organizaciones deportivas y las perspectivas teóricas a partir de las cuales se analizan; y finalmente, la incidencia de los modelos y las relaciones de género en las organizaciones deportivas. A partir de esta revisión y considerando los objetivos así como el diseño del objeto teórico del estudio, se ha desarrollado la investigación mediante dos métodos diferentes. El primer y el principal método ha sido la encuesta estandarizada cara a cara mediante un cuestionario, aplicado a todos los clubes o asociaciones que tienen un equipo o más de fútbol femenino y que estaban inscritos en la Federación Catalana de Fútbol en el año 2013 (26 clubes). El segundo método ha consistido en la realización de una entrevista semi-estructurada con seis informantes clave, seleccionados por su alto grado de conocimiento y familiarización con el objeto de estudio, así como su predisposición a participar. Así, mientras que la encuesta estandarizada permite obtener datos representativos del conjunto de clubes que cuentan con fútbol femenino en Barcelona, la entrevista aporta datos para profundizar en la situación de estos clubes, recoger elementos no previstos inicialmente, y comprender mejor los elementos clave en relación a la gestión del fútbol femenino en la ciudad. Los resultados obtenidos muestran como la presencia de fútbol femenino en los clubes deportivos de ciudad es aún poco frecuente, ya que se da en tan solo un 20% de los clubes de la ciudad, y su implantación ha sido muy tardía e inestable, de modo que solo cuatro equipos fueron creados antes del 2000. La presencia de mujeres en los clubes en que se encuentra fútbol femenino, por otra parte, es aún muy reducida, y hay una clara infrarrepresentación de mujeres como directivas, respecto al número de socias, y como entrenadoras, respecto al número de jugadoras. Se observa también, una preocupante falta de equipos femeninos en las etapas de formación. Las relaciones que se establecen dentro de los clubes pueden ser muy diversas y ambivalentes, de modo que se encuentran ejemplos claros de trato secundario, junto con ejemplos de igualdad, entendida, especialmente, desde la perspectiva del feminismo liberal. Estas relaciones ambivalentes y la distribución de los recursos son algunas de las cuestiones que ponen de manifiesto la dialéctica existente entre el modelo de clubes únicamente femeninos y el modelo de clubes mixtos. Finalmente, a partir del análisis de los datos y la revisión teórica de la investigación, se proponen dos tipificaciones de clubes diferentes. En primer lugar, la tipificación según las características estructurales, diferenciando entre el club: clásico, moderno, accesible, femenino, o mediático. En segundo lugar, la tipificación según las teorías feministas, se ha tipificado los clubes como: independiente, acoplado, asimilador o profesional. En último lugar, se apuntan las limitaciones de este estudio y las posibles líneas de futuro de la investigación sobre fútbol femenino.
This doctoral thesis has four objectives: to determine the characteristics and management types adopted by women’s football clubs in Barcelona; to know the profile of the members in those clubs, as well as the internal and external relations of the club; to analyse the position of women's teams and women within the club; and finally to propose a classification of clubs depending on the situation of women's teams within the club based on feminist theories and another one based on the structural characteristics of clubs. Techniques for obtaining the results were questionnaire-based face-to-face interviews to 26 of 32 clubs with women’s football in Barcelona city, and a semi-structured interview with key informants selected by intentional sample (n: 6). The results indicate that the presence of women in the football clubs of the city is still very low and overdue, with an important underrepresentation as coach and as member of the boards of the clubs. In addition, there is a worrying lack of female teams at a grassroots levels. The relations and the distributions of resources of the club is also analysed, focusing into the dialectic between women’s only football clubs or mixed football clubs. Based on the data analysis and the theory review, the author proposes two different clubs classification on Women's Football team related with the structural characteristics of clubs and the feminist theories.

Resumo: O ensino do conhecimento das “Histórias das modalidades esportivas” tem ocupado os currículos brasileiros da Educação Física estaduais e nacional desde a década de 1990 do século XX. Entretanto, a generalidade das indicações curriculares e a falta de referências teórico-metodológicas contribuem para que existam poucas referências bibliográficas e experiências no contexto escolar. Diante do exposto, este trabalho, organizado sob a forma de artigos, analisou propostas para o ensino das “Histórias do futebol praticado pelas mulheres no Brasil”, na modalidade à distância e presencial. As propostas se referenciaram na teoria da aprendizagem histórica do alemão Jörn Rüsen, dialogando como conceitos como Consciência Histórica e as competências que a compõe: experiência, interpretação da experiência no tempo, orientação para a vida prática. O ensino a distância foi um Curso Online Aberto Massivo (MOOC) ofertado gratuitamente pelo IFSULDEMINAS, através da plataforma TIM Tec, para professores, professoras e estudantes de nível superior.

Abstract:
Sammanfattning Syfte och frågeställningar Syftet med studien var att jämföra ett damallsvenskt lag med det svenska damlandslaget i total belastning, total distans, högintensiva löpningar (HL), mycket högintensiva löpningar (MHL) samt sprints (S). Frågeställningarna var följande: Skiljer sig total belastning och total distans mellan de två lagen? Finns det skillnader i total belastning och total distans mellan olika positioner? Finns det skillnader i HL, MHL samt S i antal genomförda och sträcka mellan lagen och mellan olika positioner? Metod Studien genomfördes på åtta kvinnliga fotbollsspelare (ålder 27±1,8, längd 168±4,7, vikt 65±4,7). Dessa representerar ett damallsvenskt lag som spelade i övre delen av tabellen under år 2017. För att genomföra mätningen användes ett GPS-system (MinimaxX S4). Mätningen genomfördes under match vilken spelades på naturgräs. Vidare har värden från landslagets 12 spelare inhämtats från SvFF (ålder 28±4,5, längd 174±5, vikt 64±4,2). Resultat Resultatet visar att klubblagets totala belastning var 186 större än landslagets. Ingen signifikant skillnad fanns mellan de två lagen. Klubblagets mittfältare belastades 19 % mer än landslagets. Vidare belastades klubblagets anfallare 33 % mer än landslagets medan backarna i klubblaget belastades med 7 % mer än landslagets. Klubblaget sprang 15 % längre än landslaget. Ingen signifikans fanns mellan lagen. Klubblagets totala distans visar att spelarna sprang längre än landslaget på alla positioner. Resultatet visade vidare att det inte fanns någon signifikans mellan lagen för HL, MHL och S. Klubblaget sprang 1 % fler antal meter HL och 13 % fler antal meter MHL än landslaget. Landslaget sprang även 3 % fler antal meter S än klubblaget. Den procentuella skillnaden mellan lagen var 19 % fler antal genomförda HL och 9 % fler antal genomförda MHL samt 17 % fler antal S än klubblaget. Landslaget genomförde fler antal HL, MHL och S på samtliga positioner. Slutsats Studien visar att det inte finns någon signifikant skillnad mellan grupperna. Dock genomförde landslaget fler S i antal och sträcka vilket överensstämmer med tidigare studier som visar att lag som spelar på högre nivå genomför fler högintensiva aktioner under en match. Studiens omfång bör utökas för att vidare undersöka dessa variabler.
Abstract Aim The aim of this study was to compare a Swedish top league soccer team to the Swedish national team during a competitive game. Comparisons included measurements in player load, total distance covered, high-speed running (HL), very high-speed running (MHL) and sprint (S). The research questions were: Is there a difference in player load and total distance covered between the teams? Is there a difference in player load and total distance covered between different playing positions? Is there a difference in HL, MHL and S in performed and meters covered between different positions and between the two teams?     Method The number of participants were eight female soccer players (age 27±1,8, length 168±4,7, weight 65±4,7). They played in the top of the league during the season of 2017. A GPS system (MinimaxX S4) was used to collect data. The game was played on nature grass in the last round of the season. The National team values were supplied by SVFF where 12 players participated (age 28±4,5, length 174±5, weight 64±4,2). Results The Swedish league team had 186 higher player load than the National team where no significant difference was found. Furthermore, the Swedish league team’s midfielders were loaded 19 % more than the national team’s. The Swedish league attackers were loaded 33 % more than the national team’s. The difference in player load between the defenders was 7 % higher for the Swedish league team’s. The Swedish league team covered 15 % more meters in total distance where no significant difference was seen. All players in the Swedish league team covered the longest distance. There were no significant difference between number of performed and meters covered in HL, MHL and S. The Swedish league team covered 1 % more meters HL and 13 % more meters MHL than the National team. The National team covered 3 % more meter S than the Swedish league team. The National team performed 19 % more HL and 9 % more MHL than the Swedish league team. In total, the National team performed more HL, MHL and S than the Swedish league team.      Conclusion No significant difference was found between the two teams. Although, the National team covered higher number of S performed and meters which is in accordance to previous surveys which shows more high-speed actions is performed in higher competition levels during a game. The survey should be expanded to further examine the demands for women’s soccer.

OBJETIVO: Analisar a contribuição da força muscular isocinética de flexores e extensores do joelho dominante e tronco na aquisição da massa óssea das regiões correspondentes a aplicação dessas forças em atletas de futebol feminino (GAF). MÉTODOS: vinte e duas atletas de futebol feminino foram comparadas com 20 controles pareados (GC). O conteúdo mineral ósseo (CMO) e a densidade mineral óssea (DMO) foram avaliados em corpo total, coluna lombar e quadril dominante (fêmur total e colo femoral) pelo software pediátrico do densitômetro Hologic QDR (modelo Discovery, Bedford, MA, USA). Pela análise de corpo total, foram determinadas as variáveis de composição corporal e a massa óssea do membro inferior dominante, tronco e cabeça. A força muscular no movimento de flexão e extensão do joelho e do tronco foi avaliada pelo dinamômetro isocinético Biodex Multi-joint System 3 (Shirley, NY, USA) na velocidade de 60°/s, com 5 repetições do modo concêntrico/excêntrico. As variáveis concêntricas de pico de torque, trabalho na repetição máxima e trabalho total dos flexores e extensores foram considerados. Foram utilizados o teste t de Student para análise entre grupos e os coeficientes de correlação de Pearson e de regressão linear simples para o GAF. RESULTADOS: Os grupos foram semelhantes para idade, peso, altura, raça e ingestão de cálcio (p>0.05), porém o GAF apresentou maior percentual de massa magra e menor percentual de gordura corporal que o GC (p<0.001). Todos os sítios ósseos submetidos à carga mecânica durante o exercício físico apresentaram valores significativamente superiores no GAF, assim como todas as variáveis de força isocinética concêntrica de joelho dominante e tronco (p<0.05 e p<0.001). As variáveis de massa óssea de todas as regiões avaliadas do GAF apresentaram correlações positivas com o peso, índice de massa corporal, massa magra total e do tronco. A DMO das regiões analisadas não apresentou nenhuma correlação significante com as variáveis de força muscular. Porém, todas as variáveis de força de flexão do tronco correlacionaram-se positivamente com o CMO do corpo total e do tronco, assim como as variáveis de extensão do joelho demonstraram associações positivas com o CMO do quadril e do membro inferior dominante. CONCLUSÃO: A força muscular exerceu uma contribuição positiva na aquisição do CMO dos sítios específicos. Esses resultados de correlação positiva entre a força e a quantidade mineral óssea de sítios específicos provêem evidências adicionais de um papel da força muscular na aquisição da massa óssea regional.
OBJECTIVE: to analyze the contribution of isokinetic muscular strength of dominant knee and trunk flexors and extensors in the acquisition of bone mass in the correspondent regions that these forces are applied in female soccer players. METHODS: twenty-two female soccer athletes (GAF) were compared with 20 matched-controls (GC). The bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD) were evaluated in whole body, lumbar spine and dominant hip (femoral neck and total hip) with the paediatric software of Hologic QDR (Discovery model, Bedford, MA, USA). From whole body scan, the variables of body composition and bone mass of dominant leg, trunk and head were also determined. The muscular strength of flexion and extension movements in dominant knee and trunk were evaluated with the Biodex Multi-joint System 3 (Shirley, NY, USA) with 60°/s, and 5 repetitions at concentric/eccentric mode. The concentric variables peak torque, maximal repetition total work and total work of flexors and extensors were considered. Statistical analysis was performed using Student\'s t-test to compare groups and additionally Pearson\'s correlation coefficient and linear regression analysis to GAF. RESULTS: Both groups were similar regarding age, weight, height, race and calcium intake (p>0.05), however GAF presented a higher percentage of lean body mass and a lower percentage of body fat compared to GC (p<0.001). All loaded sites during exercise had significantly higher values of bone mass for GAF, and so for all isokinetic concentric strength variables of dominant knee and trunk (p<0.05 e p<0.001). Bone mass variables of GAF regions presented positive correlations with weight, body mass index, total and trunk lean mass. The BMD of any region presents significant correlations with variables of strength performance. Nevertheless, all strength variables of trunk flexors were positively correlated with BMC of whole body and trunk, so as knee dominant extensors with BMC of hip and dominant leg. CONCLUSION: muscular strength exerted a positive contribution to BMC acquisition at specifics sites. These results of positive correlation between force and bone mineral quantity of specific sites give us further evidences of the muscle strength role in the acquisition of regional bone mass.

Abstract:
This study examines the conditions of womens´s participation in organized sport. The Swedish Sport Confederation and the two associations with the largest number of female members, the Swedish Gymnastics Federation and the Swedish Football Association, have been studied. Gymnastics is a traditional sport for women and is mainly a fitness sport. Soccer is a competitive sport and a new sport for women. The discussions and decisions of the sports associations regarding women and sport have been analyzed through studies of official documents, minutes and debates. An interview study with female leaders in gymnastics and soccer completes the analysis of the documents. Women represent just over a third of the members of the sports movement. Women participate in fewer sports than men. They only dominate in non-competitive and in aesthetic sports. According to this study there is no female sport or womens´sport - apart from gymnastics - only male sport with female participants. The attitude of the sports movement is that women and men are different but the form and rules of competitive sport are based on equality. The social gender system and thus mens´control over womens´ participation in sport is obvious in the sport movement. Three female counterstrategies have been identified: in the beginning of the 20th century female gymnastics coaches developed a form of gymnastics for women based on the ideology of peculiarity; in the 1970s women claimed equality with men for their breakthrough into soccer; in the 1980s women try to combine the ideologies of equality and peculiarity through male sport behaviour and the accentuation of traditional femininity. Womens´subordinate position in the sports movement is reflected in the lower valuation of womens´sport performances. Sport is an essential part of male character building. The motives of health have always been emphasized for women. The official ideology has in recent years passed on to a general accentuation of the aspects of health, which has facilitated womens´participation in sport. This is contradicted by the development of top-level sport and its manifestations in the form of for example drug-taking.

Abstract:
This is a two-part story looking at women’s professional soccer in the United States. First, it is a look at the newly formed National Women’s Soccer League. The league is the third attempt to establish a women’s professional soccer league in the U.S. Low attendance, low-ticket sales, and poor team ownership spelled the end for past leagues. The United States Soccer Federation’s involvement in the league has team owners and players overwhelming confident that the league will be a success. Challenges await them as the NWSL looks to learn from the mistakes of its predecessors. The second part looks at women’s professional soccer in Texas. The first audio story focuses on the Houston Aces and Lauren Prewitt. Prewitt plays semi-professional soccer for the Aces. At 30 years old, she still has dreams to play professionally. Aces owner William Brumbaugh is hoping his team can be the first women’s soccer team from Texas, to play in a women’s top league. The second audio story puts a focus on the Austin Nationals and the Austin Women’s Soccer League. Both are attempting to build women’s soccer in Austin but are going about it different manners. Anna Villarreal is attempting to establish a team that is not as reliant on ticket sales as most teams are. Through community outreach and partnerships with local businesses she is hoping to build a team to compete in Europe come 2014. The AWSL is a local soccer league for women that is trying to establish itself in Austin. They receive little outside support in terms of funding but president and vice president Angela Molock and Casey Gannon are hoping the changes they have brought to the league can help it grow. The “Soccer In Austin” piece focuses on the local establishments that have given soccer fans a place to go to watch their favorite clubs on television. Fadó Irish Pub and Cuatro’s have established themselves as the more popular locales when it comes to showing soccer games on television. Others have attempted to emulate Fadó’s and Cuatros’ popularity but many have struggled to attract the committed fan base that have helped Fadó and Cuatro’s become the go-to spots to watch a soccer game in Austin. Aside from showing soccer matches, these places provide people who share interests to come together and interact. For those who come from soccer loving countries such as England and Ireland, these places help to remind of home. While not quite the same in every aspect, the fans have fully embraced having a place to go where they can watch a soccer match while drinking a pint and engage in some friendly banter.

Abstract   The purpose of this study was to investigate the experience of national women soccer players in occupation, how career planning influences their future and whether or not they succeeded.   32 subjects were national soccer players who participated in this study. The research methods included interviews and open-mind questionnaires.   The main explorations of this research are: 1.The national women soccer players who terminated their sports career due to injure and economic problems. 2.In career planning, it was very important to set a clear path due to the fact that national women soccer players have to balance many tasks and roles at the same time. Suggestions were to incorporate your habits, professional skills and interests while doing the planning. Only 50% of the players made plans while on the national team. 3.Most of the national women soccer players work in sports related industry, such as teachers, coaches…etc, very few of them work in the office. No matter the career path chosen, overall situation was well. 4.Most of the national women soccer players did not have problems in developing a career after retirement. On the other hand, there were problems which include lack of work experience, professional knowledge and skills in that field. 5.The national women soccer players anticipate the educational department to work with teacher training institutes. In order to train professional knowledge and develop skills. Language learning is very important. In addition, they can set up websites and put on some information about career planning, which could make career planning easier for players.   From doing literature reviews and surveys, this study made several suggestions. For the ending, it will provide some advice to athletes who are still playing soccer at the present moment and administration departments in the sporting world.

Shi-Chih Soccer Club (SCSC), established in 2007, is the first amateur Women''s soccer team. In order to search for stage and to prove their abilities, the members of SCSC working in all parts of Taiwan in weekdays get together in weekends to join the Taiwan Ladies League. In the process of taking part in matches, SCSC used to be deficient in funds and difficult in integrating all the internal views, but the members still do their best to take into account the family, job, and studies. The career planning of most athletics in Taiwan is to become teachers or coaches, but the members of SCSC don''t think so. All of them, born in the 1970s and the 1980s, have different career planning and suggest that young women''s soccer players in Taiwan should make their career planning early and learn interdisciplinarily. What is more, some consider that the government should review the system of physical education class. As far as the future of Taiwanese women''s soccer is concerned, the interviewees in this report consider that it can strengthen the capabilities for the grassroots high school players at the beginning, and it should hurry the development of women''s Futsal.

Scoring goals is a key factor in winning soccer matches. In order to score goals, attacking players needs to constantly create shooting opportunities. Shooting opportunities can be broadly divided into team tactics, individual dribbling skills, and dead ball situations. A successful offensive tactics can create opportunities to score goals but must have appropriate shooting techniques to score. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of different offensive tactics and shooting techniques on scoring in the highest level of women’s soccer, the National Women’s Soccer League. Method: The last offensive tactics before shooting, the game time of shooting, the shooting techniques as well as shooting results from 91 games 1161 offensive shooting, 149 goals of 2016 NWSL were recorded by 2 female collegiate division I soccer players using Simi Scout software. Chi-square tests of goodness of fit and Chi-square tests of independence were used for statistical analyses. The statistical significant level was set to α =.05. Results: 1. There was a high association between the goal and the first 15 minutes of the overtime. 2. There were high associations between the goal and both cross passes to far-post and cross passes to near-post. 3. Breakaway shot, chip shot, and other shots had high associations with goals. 4. Central offenses were executed mainly with through passes followed by breakaway shots or chip shots, with general passes, exchange passes, or passes back followed by driven shots; side offenses were executed mainly with cross passes to near-post followed by driven shots and chip shots; side air offenses was mainly executed with side loft passes toward the penalty area followed by headshots. Conclusions: In NWSL, the highest shooting percentage was from side loft passes towards the penalty area followed by headers. Future studies should continue to analyze more and a variety of international women’s soccer games.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Treino Desportivo para Crianças e Jovens apresentada à Faculdade de Ciências do Desporto e Educação Física
Ao intervalo de tempo que faz com que no mesmo ano de seleção, existam crianças e jovens com quase um ano de idade de diferença, dá-se o nome de Idade Relativa, e a vantagem teórica que este acontecimento confere às crianças que nasceram primeiro, é denominado de Efeito de Idade Relativa (EIR). No futebol, o efeito da idade relativa sobressai ainda mais, devido ao facto dos jovens jogadores serem agrupados por escalões etários com períodos de 2 anos de nascimento. O principal objetivo deste estudo foi analisar o efeito da idade relativa no conjunto de futebolistas femininas selecionadas para o Campeonato da Europa Sénior (2017) e para o Campeonato da Europa Sub-17 (2018). Observou-se ainda a prevalência deste efeito em função da posição funcional em campo. A amostra foi composta por 537 jogadoras de futebol feminino, das quais, 64 eram guarda-redes, 173 defesas, 171 médios e 119 avançadas. Sendo que o número de participantes no Campeonato da Europa Feminino a nível sénior era de 368 e no Campeonato Sub17 era de 159. As análises foram realizadas com o software SPSS, versão (25.0) e o nível de significância estabelecido a p≤0,05.A nível sénior não foram encontradas diferenças significativas no que concerne à distribuição das jogadoras por trimestre de nascimento, bem como ao nível das posições funcionais em campo.Já a nível Sub-17, foram encontradas diferenças significativas no que respeita à distribuição das jogadoras por trimestre de nascimento, e nas posições funcionais, nomeadamente nas posições específicas de guarda-redes e defesas. Através deste trabalho foi possível concluir que não se verifica a presença do EIR no campeonato da Europa Sénior Feminino, mas que se verifica a presença do EIR no Campeonato da Europa Sub-17 feminino.
At the time interval that makes the same year of selection, there are children and youth with almost one year of age difference, is called Relative Age. The theoretical advantage that this event gives children who were born first is called of Relative Age Effect (RIL). In football, the effect of relative age stands out even more, due to the fact that young players are grouped by age with periods of 2 years of birth.The main objective of this study was to analyze the effect of relative age on the female soccer athletes selected for the Senior European Championship (2017) and the U17 European Championship (2018) and to observe the effect of relative age taking into account the position in the field.The sample consisted of 537 female soccer players, of whom 64 were goalkeepers, 173 defenders, 171 middle and 119 advanced. The number of participants in the European Women's Championship at the senior level was 368 and in the Sub17 Championship, it was 159. The analyses were carried out with SPSS software, version (25.0) and the level of significance established at p≤0.05.At the senior level, no significant differences were found regarding the distribution of female players by the quarter of birth, as well as the level of functional positions in the field.At sub-17 level, significant differences were found regarding the distribution of female players by the quarter of birth, and in functional positions, especially in the specific positions of goalkeepers and defenders.Through this work, it was possible to conclude that there is no presence of the EIR in the Senior Women's European Championship, but that there is the presence of the EIR in the Women's U17 European Championship.

Abstract:
Women’s soccer in Australia has historically been met with hostility. The Australian national women’s team is more accomplished than their male counterparts in terms of performance outcomes, yet they continue to experience considerably lower financial support and inferior media focus. At the same time more girls are playing soccer compared to netball, traditionally the most popular sport for girls. Women-only soccer clubs and teams have in part facilitated the growth of women’s soccer as they encourage girls and women to participate (and stay) in soccer because (as many feminist scholars have stated) women-only spaces allow the embedded power inequalities that exist within hegemonic masculine spaces to be overcome. This research aimed to gain a deeper understanding of 'female empowerment' by exploring the politics and structure of a women-only soccer club, and the lived experiences of its members. Stemming from my extensive involvement in and experience playing soccer I employed an ethnographic methodology to carry out the research. I spent two seasons 'in the field' as a player and committee member at a women-only soccer club in Melbourne conducting observations and life-history interviews. The findings reveal how the soccer players negotiate gender and the different ways in which they are, or feel, empowered through belonging to the club. The thesis contributes to the broader sociological literature on female sport and highlights the politics and paradoxes of sex-segregated sport.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the genre of Australian soccer literature by way of a close textual analysis that draws on the inter-related literary theories and practices of genre and reflexivity. It contends that this marginal literature pertaining to a still relatively marginal sport might counter-intuitively provide an excellent framework for examining key aspects of Australia that are frequently missed in scholarly analyses, as well as popular discourses around what it is to be Australian. More specifically, this thesis argues that Australian soccer literature provides vital insights into the rich, complicated, intersecting, and continuously changing lives of the individuals and groups that make up Australia. In short this thesis demonstrates the important role played by Australian soccer writing and its contribution to Australian soccer culture. In addition, the thesis details how Australian soccer literature ties into, reveals, and complicates Australian notions of identity, ethnicity, and gender, among other aspects of Australian cultural life. The thesis begins with a discursive overview of scholarly perspectives on sport and culture that gives a sense of what is at stake in writing about sport, paying particular attention to the frequent tensions and antipathies that exist between sport and literature. Then follows a literature review which situates sport and literature in global and Australian contexts, as well as analysing what constitutes Australian soccer literature, and how this has been categorised in the past. The ensuing methodology chapter defines Australian soccer literature, how it is collated, what is absent, and the difficulties of finding obscure materials. The methodology chapter also analyses the different writers who are included in this genre, including their soccer backgrounds, their motivations for including soccer or not including it. The bulk of the thesis then follows, with chapters four through eight analysing the ways in which ethnicity and gender are discussed in the various primary texts. Chapters four, five and six discuss the nuances and subtleties of ethnicity as they are explored in Australian soccer literature, with a particular focus on the depiction of Anglo-Celtic Australians, British-Australians, and those Australians not considered part of mainstream Australian identity. Chapters seven and eight consider matters of gender, focussing on the striking lack of direct participation by women in Australian soccer, and the ground-breaking and yet still often conservative world of girls and young women as depicted in Australian soccer literature.

Introduction: Participation of young females in soccer has started to increase in the past few years. Females participating in soccer are more vulnerable to injuries than males due to the nature of the sport especially because the sport is characterised as a vigorous, high intensity, intermittent ball and contact activity. Objective: This study sought to determine the epidemiology of injuries in high school female soccer players in the eThekwini district. Method: A quantitative approach using a cross sectional survey was used to determine the epidemiology of injuries in female high school soccer players in the eThekwini district. One-hundred-and-ninety-seven female high school soccer players, between the ages of 14 to 19 years who have played soccer for at least one season, from 27 female high schools in the eThekwini district were invited to participate. A self-administered questionnaire was used to determine the demographic profile of the players and the reported prevalence of injuries in the soccer players. The study also determined the profile of soccer related injuries, management of injuries, identified risk factors for injury, and compared injuries occurring during training and during matches. Results: Out of a total of 85 respondents only 31 sustained injuries. The injury prevalence for the season was 36.5%. Only 61 injuries (71.8%) were reported by the injured players. The rate of injury was 90 per 1000 athlete exposure hours during the season. Only two female players reported the five injuries while all 29 female players sustained at least one injury. The defenders (31.7%) and midfielders (28.6%) sustained the most injuries. Most injuries reported were contact in nature (12.9%). More injuries occurred during training (12.9%) rather than during matches (8.2%). The lower extremity (77.8%) was injured more than the upper extremity (22.2%). The knee (22.2%) and ankle (15.9%) were the most frequently injured body parts. Muscle injury (23.5%) was the most commonly reported followed by bruising (10.6%). Conclusion: Prevalence of injuries was high in the cohort studied. The lower limb, specifically the knee and ankle were most commonly injured. Muscle injury and bruising were the most common injury affecting the lower extremity. It is recommended that the study be extended to a larger cohort of school children.

Purpose: To analyze and compare the training models and managements among three different teams, including Colorado RUSH team, Canberra United team and Vancouver Whitecaps team. Methods: The relevant information were collected by attending every team’s training seasons, and the SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats) analysis was used to compare the training models and managements among three teams. Results: The senior management, administrative and technical departments were founded in each team. The Colorado RUSH team had less marketing strategies than the others. The Colorado RUSH team added more rest sessions in the training program for adapting the high altitude environment. The tactical strategy of Canberra United team emphasized the control of ground ball pass, and both the Colorado RUSH and Vancouver Whitecaps teams focused on full-court press and quick attack with long ball pass. The duration of pre-season in the three teams had approximately 3 to 4 weeks, and the microcycle of the in-season emphasized the physical training sessions and recovery/regeneration sessions. Conclusion: The Australia, United States and Canada have a place in the world women soccer, because of the development of soccer clubs and the competitive professional or semi-professional league. The coaches in the three teams are good at organizing training program and inspiring athletes to face the continuous and intensive competitions. The coaches designed the tactics and training program according to the athletic characteristics, and used the periodized and scientific training methods to help athletes to achieve peak performance.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the pressure sources during competition and the methods, strategies, effects in response to competition stress among elite female soccer players. Through depth interviews, the players’ usual training experience and competition experience were recorded and discussed. A total of 15 elite soccer players participating in the international competitions from 2010 to 2015 were recruited in this study. Data were analyzed and there were three findings. First, the main pressure sources of elite female soccer players during usual training were the expectations from the coaches, the inability to break their and partners’ own records. Second, the pressure sources before competition were that the expectations from the audience and the society, the expectations from the coaches and their parents, and the strength of their competitors. Third, the pressure sources during competition were their worst condition, the expectation from the coaches and their parents, and the scores behind their opposite. The main strategies to reduce pressure were self-talk, positive thinking, focusing on the court and imagery. Some of the players were not satisfied with the coach in the role of mental skills training. In hence, systematic, methodical mental skills training courses are the indispensable key to a successful soccer training program.

Abstract:
D.Phil. (Sport Science)
Socialisation is an interactive reciprocal process that shapes the way individuals think, act and make decisions. Through the sport socialisation process, over time individuals acquire beliefs and behaviours that affect other areas of their life, including education, family relations and peer interactions. Socialisation affects the lives of the participant’s significant others and socialising agents, who demonstrate changes in the way they view women’s football, interact with the player and assist with domestic duties. These processes occur in the public and private spheres and are closely associated with cultural perspectives of masculine and feminine gender identity construction. Four theories underpin the research, namely figurational theory, critical feminism, interactionism and cognitive development theory. This thesis examines the effects of female football participation in family dynamics, school and community relations, as well as individual identity formation and the challenges and benefits related to participation. For this comprehensive case study approach mixed methods were used (i.e. interviews, focus groups and questionnaires). The study focused on 21 cases of female football players in two South African locations, Johannesburg and Cape Town. Interviews were conducted with 21 players that played in leagues organised by the South African Football Association. In each location there was a senior team that played in the provincial leagues and an under-15 team that played in the regional leagues. Interviews were conducted with 48 significant others (individuals who influence the self-esteem, emotions and behaviour of a person, including mothers, fathers, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents), four coaches, seven administrators, and eleven school representatives. Focus groups took place at four schools in each location in which 258 students participated. Questionnaires were conducted in the communities around each of the selected schools, incorporating the perspectives of 169 respondents. The data was analysed with the assistance of Atlas.ti 6.2 and SPSS 20. Football in South Africa occurs within a context of poverty with the legacy of apartheid remaining in terms of limited access to resources, poor provision of sports facilities, unemployment, fragmented families, and lack of educational opportunities. These factors continued to affect the prospects of sport participation. Understanding hegemonic masculinity as the dominant ideology in the townships provides a background to analyse how men control the limited physical resources and public sport spaces, requiring girls to gain access through a male proxy or gatekeeper. Once females acquire access they are able to gain acceptable and legitimacy through demonstrating their competencies and success in competitions. Socialisation through sport occurs as girls are occupied in safe, controlled spaces with adult supervision rather than become involved in deviant behaviours. In these settings female footballers acquired positive behaviours and improved attributes such as time management, discipline, respect and self-efficacy. Their participation resulted in a reduction of social distance between them and their teacher-coaches, which improved the learning climate fostering trusting relationships. As the girls were socialised into football, some adopted masculine behaviours and appearance. In some cases tomboy behaviour merged into homosexuality (lesbianism) with the rejection of feminine role identification of ‘mother’ and ‘wife’. The team in the Cape Town setting openly promoted heterosexuality compared to the team in Johannesburg, where coach and players were accepting and receptive towards players who expressed a variety of sexualities. This resulted in four individuals identifying as lesbian or bisexual within the research participants. The responses by their family members were complex and varied. Siblings encouraged the acceptability for other family members, whereas fathers were absent or oblivious and mothers were highly critical based on their religious and cultural traditions. Mothers experienced failure of not socialising their daughters into the social role that is perceived to encapsulate womanhood (as wife and mother). Perceptions regarding women’s football are changing in the public discourse to become more supportive. This is informed by a democratic South African consciousness and human justice framework that encourages greater acceptance of women’s roles in positions of power. Increased resource allocation through sponsorships and government programmes affords additional opportunities for female participation as well as encouragement for participants. Recommendations emerging from this thesis are useful to maintain the growth and support of women’s football. Structural adjustments are necessary within South African football in terms of increasing the amount of leagues and tournaments available for women and girls, leadership opportunities and long-term athlete development plans. Changes in practices that are vital to women’s football include equality of resource allocation, stakeholder engagement and media exposure. These changes require government and SAFA support to materialise, as well as continued alterations in individual, family and community attitudes, behaviours and practices. As women’s football in South African continues to grow and develop the opportunities for forthcoming research are plentiful. Utilising a mixed method comprehensive case study approach, becoming intimately involved in the research context, and providing opportunities for local voices to be heard can meaningfully inform future policies and practices.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference in the accuracy of the expected penalty shots position predicted by female college students of varied experiences in football when they watched different spatial occlusion videos. Data were obtained from 30 healthy female college students the experienced group (age = 21.57±1.76) and 30 female non-experienced ones the inexperienced group (age = 21.33±1.16). At first, participants were required to watch the recorded (96 videos) videos of penalty shots. Whenever finishing watching a clip of the videos, they were then asked to select the checkboxes and tick their answers on the list.The data collected from the survey was conducted and tested by independent sample t-test and mixed-design two-factor analysis of variance. The acquired statistics were analyzed by SPSS for Windows 18.0 software and the statistically significant level was set as α=.05. Results was as the following. Firstly, the percentage of accuracy got from all the participants of different experience levels in expecting the position of football penalty shot is above 16.6%. Secondly, the experienced group can make more accurate judgements than the inexperienced do about the positions of the players’ heads, shoulders, torsos, buttocks, and supporting feet. Thirdly, the experienced group judge the positions of penalty kick mainly by watching the ball position, while the inexperienced group judge from the position of the supporting foot.

Abstract:
M.Tech. (Homoeopathy)
The common cold and influenza (flu) are upper respiratory tract conditions; the former characterized by nasal or throat discomfort, sneezing, rhinorrhoea, and malaise, and the latter by fever, coryza, anorexia, cough, headache, malaise and myalgia (Beers et al., 2006). The common cold can be caused by over 200 rhinoviruses while influenza is mostly due to influenza virus A or B. Cold symptoms usually clear after 7-10 days, influenza which is more severe lasts for 2-3 weeks (Eccles, 2005). Athletes are susceptible to common colds and influenza infections due to intensive physical activities and stress, which lowers their immune systems and increases the risk of spread among team-mates. To avoid missing competitions and practice, it would be advantageous for athletes to receive prophylactic treatment during the high risk period for colds and flu such as in winter (Brukner and Khan, 2006). Pelargonium sidoides, which is an ingredient of Linctagon® spray, is a well-researched plant extract which has antiviral, antibacterial and immune-modulator effects (Nativa, 2011). Its effect as a prophylactic for athletes has not been researched. The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of Linctagon® spray in preventing common colds and influenza in female soccer teams of the University of Johannesburg. This was a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, which took place over 63 days. Thirty female participants aged between 18-30 years were recruited from the University of Johannesburg female soccer teams via direct recruitment during training sessions on the University of Johannesburg Bunting campus. Participants meeting the inclusion criteria completed the Participant Information, Profile and Consent Forms. On day 1, the participants underwent a physical examination (vitals, ear, nose, throat and chest examinations). Participants either received a 20 ml bottle of Linctagon® spray or a placebo spray. Five squirts were taken orally twice daily for nine weeks. Participants also received three Wellness Questionnaires and Health Questionnaires to complete at home weekly and returned these at the following visits. On day 21 and day 42, the researcher collected the completed Questionnaires, performed a physical examination, dispensed and gave participants additional medication, and three additional Wellness and Health Questionnaires. At the final consultation, day 63, the researcher collected the questionnaires, and did a fourth and final physical examination. The data was collected from the participants and analyzed according to group frequencies and independent T-tests. The outcome indicated that the placebo was equally as effective as Linctagon® spray in the prophylaxis of common cold and influenza infections in female soccer team players of the University of Johannesburg for the duration of the study.

Abstract:

Background: Poor balance is a risk factor for injury in adolescent sport including soccer. Despite the rapid growth in female adolescent soccer especially in South Africa, the association between balance and injury in this population has not been fully explored. This study aimed to determine the relationship between injury and balance. Static and dynamic balance was monitored as sway index (SI) and limits of stability direction control (LOSDC). Objectives: The objectives of this study were to determine the body mass index of adolescent female soccer players; to determine the prevalence of injury in adolescent female soccer players; to determine static balance as revealed by the sway index (SI); to determine dynamic stability as revealed by limits of stability direction control (LOSDC) and to correlate body mass index (BMI) to sway index and limits of stability. Method: Eighty adolescent female soccer players, between the ages of fourteen and eighteen, were recruited through convenience sampling from schools in the eThekwini district of KwaZulu-Natal. After obtaining informed consent and assent, participants completed questionnaires and were scheduled for the balance and BMI assessments. The objective data for each participant consisted of height, weight, Sway Index (SI) and Limits of Stability Direction Control (LOSDC) readings, measured using a stadiometer, electronic scale and Biodex Biosway Balance System (Biodex Medical Systems Inc., Shirley, New York) respectively. The subjective and objective data were analyzed using SPSS version 21.0 (SPSS Inc. Chicago, Ill, USA). Statistical tests included descriptive statistics using frequency and cross-tabulation. Inferential statistics using t-tests and Pearson’s correlations at a significance level of 0.05 was also incorporated. The testing of hypotheses was performed using Fisher’s Exact tests for nominal data and ordinal data. A p value of < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. The statistical analysis also included Odds Ratio calculations. Results: The mean body mass index of the injured participants was 23.54±3.56 kg/m2 and the mean body mass index of the uninjured participants was 23.00±4.63. Only 27.5% of the participants sustained an injury. Injured participants performed poorly on average in the SI assessment involving their eyes open when standing on a soft surface. The results were similar for the LOSDC in the overall, right, left, backward-right and backward-left directions. However, there were no significant correlations calculated. Significant relationships existed between BMI and the SI assessments in the injured participants which involved standing on a firm surface with their eyes open (p = 0.05), their eyes closed when also standing on a firm surface (p = 0.05), their eyes open when standing on a soft surface (p = 0.02), and their eyes closed when standing on a soft surface (p = 0.04). A significant relationship also existed between BMI and LOS right direction control (p = 0.02). Conclusion: This research paper revealed that the body mass index as investigated in this study is similar to other studies involving female adolescents; soccer injury as investigated in this study is similar to other studies involving female adolescents; poor static and dynamic balance is not associated with injury in adolescent female soccer players and lastly, body mass index is linked to the balance of an individual.

Abstract:
Despite increased female participation in sport, there remains an under-representation of women in sport leadership positions, particularly at the elite level (e.g., Acosta & Carpenter, 2010; Cameron, 1996; Hartmann-Tews & Pfister, 2003; McKay, 1997; Robertson, 2010). Researchers have identified barriers that have inhibited women’s progression to elite-level roles. Little is known, however, about the pathways or experiences of women who do advance to elite-level positions. The primary aim of this dissertation research was to explore how women overcome societal, organisational, familial, and personal barriers to obtain employment as elite-level coaches, officials (referees, umpires), and administrators (managers, directors, executives).
