ABSTRACT We draw on Bourdieu’s concept of habitus, capital and field, and Foucault’s understanding of power, to examine how gender as a relation of power is exercised in the female-athlete, male-coach relationship. We conducted in-depth semi-structured interviews with nine international male coaches and female athletes. Our findings reveal a hierarchy within rowing and a perpetuation of the gendering of coaching creating a habitus which positions female athletes below male athletes. The positioning of female athletes effects how capital is defined, used and negotiated by the coaches and athletes. The implications of which need to be addressed by sporting federations in order to support and develop coaches as gender-responsive practitioners, thereby addressing the capital and power gap which is often present in elite sport.

注意差距：精英赛艇运动中的女运动员-男教练关系中存在资本和权力

摘要我们借鉴布迪厄的惯性，资本和领域的概念以及福柯对权力的理解，来研究在女运动员，男教练之间如何运用性别作为权力的关系。我们对九名国际男教练和女运动员进行了深入的半结构化访谈。我们的研究结果揭示了划船活动中的等级制度以及教练性别的长期存在，从而创造了一种习惯，即将女运动员置于男运动员下方。女运动员的位置影响教练和运动员如何定义，使用和协商资本。体育联合会需要解决这些问题的影响，以支持和发展教练，使他们成为对性别问题有敏感认识的执业者，从而解决精英体育中经常存在的资金和权力差距。
