The description of current load monitoring practices may serve to highlight developmental needs for both the training ground, academia and related industries. While previous studies described these practices in elite men's football, no study has provided an overview of load monitoring practices in elite women's football. Given the clear organizational differences (i.e., professionalization and infrastructure) between men's and women's clubs, making inferences based on men's data is not appropriate. Therefore, this study aims to provide a first overview of the current load monitoring practices in elite women's football. Twenty-two elite European women's football clubs participated in a closed online survey (40% response rate). The survey consisted of 33 questions using multiple choice or Likert scales. The questions covered three topics; type of data collected and collection purpose, analysis methods, and staff member involvement. All 22 clubs collected data related to different load monitoring purposes, with 18 (82%), 21 (95%), and 22 (100%) clubs collecting external load, internal load, and training outcome data, respectively. Most respondents indicated that their club use training models and take into account multiple indicators to analyse and interpret the data. While sports-science staff members were most involved in the monitoring process, coaching, and sports-medicine staff members also contributed to the discussion of the data. Overall, the results of this study show that most elite women's clubs apply load monitoring practices extensively. Despite the organizational challenges compared to men's football, these observations indicate that women's clubs have a vested interest in load monitoring. We hope these findings encourage future developments within women's football.

“Parliaments of Mothers and Sisters”: Jewish Women’s Social Service in the Warsaw Ghetto The article explores a broad range of social and aid activities of Jewish women in the Warsaw Ghetto under the aegis of the Jewish Organization for Social Care, known as Jewish Social Self-Help (JSS). Due to hard living conditions, those women were forced into increased outside activities, as well as taking protective actions in aid of strangers, individuals, and families alike. They founded women’s clubs in every house, alongside with many public soup kitchens, common rooms, day care centers and so-called children’s corners, the staff of which would consist mainly of women. All these facilities together formed the largest chain of self-help centers, next to the numerous ghetto House Committees.

The present study aims to investigate the attitude, obstacles, and suggestions for female students to participate in sports for all in Saudi Arabia. It adopted the social survey approach and applied the questionnaire and scale of attitude to a randomly selected sample of (375) students at King Saud University. The study concluded that the total score of the attitude was high. The cognitive, behavioral, and emotional aspects were ranked first, second, and third, respectively. The free time constraints, temperature, and weather fluctuations are the most significant obstacles, while increasing women's clubs and decreasing subscription fees are the most important constituents. The study recommends providing various and free sports activities, courses, and symposia to disseminate the culture of sports for all among university students.

During the 19-teens, the Kentucky suffrage movement's momentum began to build. Groups like the Kentucky Federation of Women's Clubs, the Women's Christian Temperance Union, and the Kentucky Education Association pledged support for suffrage, demonstrating its new identity as a mainstream cause. KERA especially targeted men in their efforts to win new converts. The cause still struggled, however, in rural Kentucky. Only by acknowledging deeply rooted values centered on God, family, and community would the suffrage movement gain headway there.

This paper examines the work and lives of black female activist intellectuals in the years before the formation of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs (NACWC) in 1896. Looking deeper at arguments originally made by Maria Stewart concerning the denial of black women's ambitions and limiting potential in their working lives, the analysis employs the work of the Italian Marxist Antonio Gramsci, in particular his notion of the intellectual, to help reflect on the centrality of these black women in the development of an early counterhegemonic movement.
