This book examines the developments in women's sports history in
Britain in the last 10 years, following on from its successful
predecessor Women and Sport History (2010). It considers what has
changed and what continuities persist drawing on a series of
contributions from authors who are active in the field. The
chapters included in this book cover a broad time frame and range
of topics such as the history of women's football in Scotland and
England; women's role in rugby leagues; women's sport during World
War II; and female participation in American football, cricket and
cycling. Written and edited during the early days of the COVID-19
pandemic, the book also reflects on the possible implications of
the pandemic on women's sport. In doing so, it highlights the
diversity of research currently being undertaken in the field and
touches on areas which remain overlooked or underdeveloped. The
chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue
of Sport in History.
