Abstract

Based on an analysis of journalistic documentary sources we consider various social markers of difference such as race/ethnicity, social class and gender that influenced the invisibility of women in Brazilian football. The objective of this article is to discuss the social structures that led to the concealment of minority groups and a distancing in the study of themes considered uncommon in the academic field. We understand that historical research using documentary sources and memory helps to build a plural history about (women's) football in Brazil.
