The feminine participation in the world of sports has overcome barriers and stigmas throughout the last years, leading to the creation and validation of feminine categories in a lot of traditionally masculine sports. Nevertheless, that participation has place in a significative and rooted inequality and gender discrimination. Both masculine and feminine sports leagues deserve the same acknowledgement, participation conditions and freedom exercise, which cannot be determined by the gender of the participants, or by the fact that they are wearing a tight bikini or short pants. In the specific case of the sports dress code, it is evident that the players, sportsmen, sportswomen and athletes deserve the chance to choose the kind of clothing that makes them feel more comfortable and less exposed, while the fulfill the general guidelines that do not affect their performance nor their dignity.

Based on play-by-play data from nine full seasons of ACB basket league (2929 games, 119338 efforts) the fundamental statistical properties of free throwing are described taking into account several time factors of the internal logic of the game (i.e. season periods and playing time of the match, the value of the different scoring interactions, score). FIn addition, and for the first time, it is possible to identify the sets of free shots taken by a player every time he goes to the line. The main conclusions were: the competence in free throwing seems stable along the season; free throwing performance depends on the success at the first shot of the series; some of the statistical effects seem practically too counterintuitive, what must make us reflect about the links between scientists' decisions and the coaches' decisions.

This article discusses the emigration patterns of Latin American women to Granada, Spain and the development of the Liga Iberoamericana de Fútbol (the Latin American Soccer League). It examines the participation of women in the soccer league as well as their daily lives, including information related to employment. The authors comment on the ethnic diversity of female soccer players in Granada during the first decade of the 21st century. They also analyze the social conditions in Granada at the time, including the variety of jobs available to women.

Immigrants in Spain, especially those from Andean countries, have constituted an emerging associative movement that has taken the form of soccer and futsal leagues created by the immigrants themselves. Women's participation in these leagues is significant. How should women's involvement in sports be understood? This article centers on the study of migratory, social and labor networks to understand the practice of soccer and its influence on gender relations. Its objective is to analyze the strategies of migrants and explain how migratory and social networks on arrival have affected the formation and potentiality of this space, as well as the development of teams, as demonstrated, in this case, by the Bolivia team of Seville in which I participated as an ethnographer-player. To that end, I have used an empirical, social and process-based focus that has allowed me to analyze change in the sport as a process parallel to the unfolding of migratory trajectories and couple relationships.

The activity carried out by Transparency International Spain in the field of sport, and more specifically in professional football, with the express acceptance and participation of the entities involved, has contributed to the implementation of compliance with the obligations established in matters of transparency, in the Public Limited Sports Companies and Clubs that participate at all times in official state-level professional soccer competitions, exclusively and compulsorily integrated into the National Professional Soccer Football League. In that sense, among all the activities, documents and reports prepared by Transparency International Spain in the sports field, we focus on the so-called Transparency Index of Football Clubs (INFUT), which has achieved great relevance and media diffusion, with which Transparency International Spain indicates that it has evaluated the level of transparency of the sports entities that comprise The Spanish Football League (including the so called First and Second Division), through a set of indicators covering certain areas of transparency, with relevant data and information that such entities are estimated to offer citizens and society as a whole.
