The Impact of Gender on Safeguarding and Protecting Athletes in Women\u2019s Artistic Gymnastics
Dr Natalie Barker-Ruchti<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Abstract: <\/h5>\n\n\n\n
\"Dr
Dr Natalie Barker-Ruchti<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Women\u2019s artistic gymnastics (WAG) has since the 2016 USA Gymnastics sex abuse scandal and the release of the Netflix documentary Athlete<\/em> A <\/em>in 2020 experienced a significant global reckoning. Never before have gymnasts from around the world turned to journalists and online media to disclose the realities they have experienced \u2013 violent coaching behaviours, abusive training methods, individual and organizational neglect and negligence, and a myriad of short- and long-term consequences to health, wellbeing, identity and more generally, lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this presentation, I focus on the process of gendering that shapes how individuals experience themselves and their lives; how they are expected to behave and are organised and represented by formal institutions; and how they are ruled and categorised by governing bodies and legal systems (Risman, 2018). I demonstrate how this gendering constitutes WAG\u2019s violent behaviours and abusive practices and discuss what this means for the protection and safeguarding of gymnasts (Barker-Ruchti, Schubring & Stewart, 2021). I then explore how the unitard, the full body dress that several German gymnasts have worn at the 2021 European Gymnastics Championships and the Tokyo Olympic Games can contribute to the cultural changes that are essential to transform WAG and ensure gymnast welfare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaker biography:<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Natalie is Associate Professor at the Division of Sport Science, School of Health Sciences, \u00d6rebro University, Sweden. Ever since her Honours thesis in 1999, Natalie has researched women\u2019s artistic gymnastics. This research has focused on understanding the gymnasts\u2019 individual realities, but has also included studies on the history, governance, and media representations of the sport. The overall aim is always to enhance gymnasts\u2019 wellbeing and ensure their safeguarding. Her scientific approaches have involved (auto-) ethnography, case study inquiry, visual analysis, and interview study. Currently, she runs the research project #gymnastalliance: An international study on women\u2019s gymnasts speaking out about abuse<\/em><\/a>. In 2016, Natalie founded the International Socio-Cultural research group on Women\u2019s Artistic Gymnastics, ISCWAG<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sexual Discrimination in Elite Sports Coaching
Professor Leanne Norman, Leeds Beckett University, UK<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Abstract: <\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The Research Centre for Social Justice in Sport & Society in the Carnegie School of Sport, Leeds Beckett University is well-recognised for its work on gender equity in sport, particularly within sport coaching. The programme of work, led by Professor Leanne Norman, aims to not only improve the representation of a more gender-balanced coaching workforce but also the inclusion <\/em>of different groups of women within the profession who have largely been isolated and marginalised. For this talk, Professor Norman will focus on one particular recent study carried out by her and her team on behalf of the Female Coaching Network focusing on high-performance UK athletics coaching. What began as a study on how gender equity can be achieved within elite coaching in the sport soon brought to light serious issues of sexual discrimination, harassment, and even abuse. Often the focus of such issues within scholarly literature and practice is on athletes. While this is correct, a dual focus on coaches and their experiences of sexual discrimination and harassment is less well-documented. The purpose of this talk will be to introduce the programme of research on gender equity in sport within the Research Centre for Social Justice in Sport & Society, and then to discuss in more detail, the work carried out in high-performance UK Athletics coaching on issues of discrimination and gender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
