In recent decades Africa has emerged as a sporting giant. The
African sporting phenomenon has been addressed in the popular press
and it has also attracted scholarly interest; however, this
interest is almost entirely focussed on men. Yet women's
participation in recreational and elite sport is worthy of
exploration and research. This path-breaking collection of essays
provides an introduction to a variety of dimensions of women's
participation in African sports. Several key concepts are addressed
in the book: women and media, women and sport-migration, sport and
empowerment, sporting and social development, women's sport and
postcolonial Africa, and professional sport and economic
development. This collection, authored by established scholars,
will attract readership from students from Sports Studies to
African Studies and from undergraduate students to university
teachers. This book was published as a special issue of Sport in
Society.
