Abstract
Employing personal narrative, observations, and overview of literature, the notions of gender and leadership are examined through captaining. Battling the gender norms in female team sports and leadership has been a non-topic for decades in physical education and recreational sports. This study intends to interrogate and highlight the obstacles and possibilities of leadership in female sports and to rectify the often antiquated and masculinist points of view on female sports.
