Much writing on gender and sport is focused upon the negative
impact of girls' exclusion from the arena, suggesting by inference
that current practice in sport and physical education offers an
uncomplicatedly positive sport experience for boys, and that
gender, in and of itself, offers a simple starting point for
research into young people's experience of sport.
Rethinking Gender and Youth Sport seeks to articulate certain
themes which, it is suggested, might contribute to broadening and
furthering discussion in the area of gender, youth sport and
physical activity. This collection considers a number of themes
relating to gender in sport, including:
- the body
- competence, ability and school physical education
- cultural change and diversity
- gendered spaces
- human rights and well-being.
Authoritative writers have contributed thought provoking
chapters which will prompt the readerto re-think the ways in which
gender is understood within the context of youth sport.
