Monitoring Obstacles to Women's Sports in Iraq
Main Article Content
Abstract
The study aimed to monitor all the obstacles that stand in the way of the development of women's sports and to develop radical and realistic solutions to advance it and seek its programs to build a strong women's sports community. The descriptive-analytical approach was adopted to monitor the obstacles, by collecting relevant data from the individuals in the research sample using a questionnaire prepared for this purpose that includes (9) axes and (52) phrases distributed to players and practitioners of sports activities in sports forums throughout Iraq except for the Kurdistan region, whose number is (167) girls. The researchers concluded that there are strict social and cultural restrictions, and fears of society's view that prevents girls and women from practicing sports, in addition to the weakness of education in forums about the benefits of sports. The researchers also recommended increasing sports awareness among everyone about the importance of Iraqi women practicing sports and taking into account local traditions and culture to ensure society's acceptance of women practicing sports
