Abstract

Participation in sports and physical activity promotes and enhances social networks. Furthermore, these relationships are important for women to participate. In this report we present the main points that emerged from an ethnographic study of the social relationships thatplaying Basque pelota can provide. The study was carried out on a sample of adult women, players in the area of recreation. The results suggest that the sense of community and teammembership are the most important aspects for players. The sense of belonging to their groupis the fundamental reason why they practise this sport. Female pelotaris share the desire torelate to each other both on the field and off.
