Testing Boundaries
In 1971, Danish medical scientists from Aarhus University publicly opposed the use of a sex chromatin test to establish eligibility in women’s sport. Their protest rested on scientific grounds; they argued that sex could not be determined by a single biological criterion and warned of the psychological harm it would cause competitors with chromosomal variations. Buoyed by public support in Denmark, the medical scientists submitted a formal memora…
The Other Olympians
In The Other Olympians: Fascism, Queerness, and the Making of Modern Sports, journalist Michael Waters offers a compelling and accessible account of how sex testing in sport was born out of fascist ideologies. Based on extensive archival research and supported by footnotes, Waters traces how a “small cadre of officials, including a Nazi sports doctor and a number of Nazi sympathizers, first came up with the idea of medical exams to determine sex”…
Sex Testing in Volleyball
Whereas anxieties about the appearances of some competitors led to the enactment of sex control in other sports, volleyball initially avoided such scrutiny. However, organisers introduced verification after an accusation of fraud surfaced at the 1972 Munich Olympics. They then required on-site laboratory testing at FIVB-sponsored events from 1974 to 2004. An assessment of FIVB Medical Commission reports suggests the FIVB checked thousands of voll…
Athlete Perceptions of Governance-Related Issues to Sexual Abuse in Sport
Cases of abuse in sport have emerged with frightening regularity over the past two decades. Scholarship has identified risk factors that can help facilitate abuse in sport and has explored athletes’ experiences with sexual abuse. However, less is known about athletes’ perceptions of the systematic organizational-level problems that fail to curtail sexual abuse. This article, therefore, explores what athletes believe to be the key issues in govern…
The Sisterhood
In The Sisterhood: The 99ers and the Rise of U.S. Women's Soccer, Rob Goldman provides an overview of the rise of the US Women's National Team (USWNT), from its ragtag start in 1985 to its iconic penalty-kick-victory in 1999. Based on interviews with thirteen players, one coach, and a handful of others close to the team, Goldman offers biographical information about key athletes and accounts of key matches. Taken together, the thirty-five chapter…
Restart. Sport After the Covid-19 Time Out
In the edited collection Restart: Sport After the Covid-19 Time Out, practitioners and international scholars explore the “restart” of sport and fitness following the initial period of lockdowns during spring 2020. The chapters provide insight into the sport and fitness landscape following the initial wave of the pandemic. The book focuses on challenges for sport providers, consequences for sporting participants, and opportunities for new ways of…
Time Out
In the edited collection Time Out: Global Perspectives on Sport and the Covid-19 Lockdown, practitioners and international scholars explore the impact of the global Covid-19 health pandemic on sport from a global perspective. It is part of a two-volume Covid-19 and Sport series that tackles the effects of the global lockdown on sport during March and April 2020, when restrictions were at their most severe and the human toll at its peak in many co…
Time Out
This paper examines the impact of the first Covid-19 lockdown in Ireland on Gaelic games and the sports-media complex in Ireland via an analysis of the media discourses surrounding these sports. It focuses principally on the period between March 12th (when the Irish government announced the lockdown confirming the suspension of Gaelic games fixtures) and May 12th. Gaelic games provide a unique focus on the topic of sport and the lockdown; they ar…
The Medical Examination of Lady Competitors
The International Ski Federation (FIS) instituted sex testing protocols in 1967. In doing so, it followed the example set by the International Amateur Athletic Federation (IAAF) and became the second international federation to institute some form of compulsory sex control, before the International Olympic Committee implemented its sex verification policy in 1968. Despite initially looking to the track and field federation for guidance, the FIS e…
An Introduction to “50 Years
As with most facets of life, the COVID-19 pandemic changed the annual North American Society for Sport History (NASSH) convention. The abrupt onset of the pandemic forced the cancellation of the 2020 meeting, the first time NASSH did not convene since its inaugural conference in 1973. The continued severity of COVID-19 required NASSH to meet online in 2021, with members signing on to a virtual platform to share their work and engage with colleagu…
Race but Not Racism
An analysis of The Jesse Owens Story (1984) and Race (2016) provides a unique opportunity to examine the portrayal of race relations in popular culture as the biopics offer two different versions of the same life lived. Whereas The Jesse Owens Story chronicles Owens’s life from birth to death, Race focuses on the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Despite being released over thirty years apart, the biopics nevertheless embrace similar tropes and reinforce par…
Our Sport’
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) initially ignored women’s sports. The efforts of female leaders and organizations, particularly Alice Milliat and the Fédération Sportive Féminine Internationale (FSFI), instead paved the way for women’s inclusion in Olympic athletics. The success of the FSFI’s Women’s Olympic Games in 1922 not only served as a catalyst in this regard, but …
Writing Sport Online
Opportunities abound for scholars’ digital engagement. Among the numerous available technologies, blogging has emerged as a medium that presents both opportunities and challenges for academics. Although scholars have reflected on the values and drawbacks of blogging in academia, few have specifically analyzed academic sport blogs. This paper uses a content analysis of six sport-specific online forums to examine the composition of contributors and…
Invisible Seasons
Much has been written about the history and impact of Title IX on sport. While popular lore casts Title IX as the most significant factor in the advancement of women's athletics, sport historians have pointed out its social, philosophical, and legal limitations. Kelly Belanger fills a gap in the Title IX scholarship by focusing on the rhetoric—the strategic use of language—people deployed to defend or derail the legislation. In Invisible Seasons …
Sex Testing
In 1968, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) implemented sex testing for female athletes at that year's Games. When it became clear that testing regimes failed to delineate a sex divide, the IOC began to test for gender—a shift that allowed the organization to control the very idea of womanhood. This book explores sex testing in sport from the 1930s to the early 2000s. Focusing on assumptions and goals as well as means, the book examines ho…

Sex Testing and the Maintenance of Western Femininity in International Sport
During the Cold War, women from Eastern Europe excelled in international sport. Rather than applauding the successes of these female athletes, many in the Cold-War-West responded with suspicion, contempt and derision. Armed with rumours and anecdotes, the International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF) implemented sex testing in 1966, and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) followed suit two years later. Despite the introduction of…

Gender Regulation
In 1976, a reporter at a tennis tournament identified the rookie standout Renée Clarke as Renée Richards, the former male professional tennis player Richard Raskind. The discovery of Richards, a male-to-female transsexual, immediately caused protest.
