In this article, we frame men’s club football as an “extremely gendered” organization to explain the underrepresentation of women leaders within the industry. By analyzing women’s leadership work over a 30-year period, we find that women’s inclusion has been confined to a limited number of occupational areas. These areas are removed, in terms of influence and proximity, from the male players and the playing of football. These findings reveal a gendered substructure within club football that maintains masculine dominance in core football leadership roles and relegates women to a position of peripheral inclusion in leadership roles. Through a discourse analysis of gender pay gap reports, we show that men’s football clubs legitimize women’s peripheral inclusion by naturalizing male dominance at the organizational core. These findings are significant because they demonstrate that men’s football clubs, as masculinity-conferring organizations, have excluded women from core roles to maintain their masculine character while superficially accepting women into roles that do not challenge the association of football with hegemonic masculinity. Therefore, organizational change may be possible only if women are granted greater access to core organizational roles. Here, we offer a new theoretical framework for “extremely gendered” organizations that can be applied to other sporting and male-dominated contexts to analyze women’s access to core leadership roles.

在外围:检查女性在英格兰男子俱乐部足球“极度性别化”组织中被排除在核心领导角色之外

在本文中,我们将男子足球俱乐部定义为一个“极度性别化”的组织,以解释该行业中女性领导者的代表性不足。通过分析 30 年来女性的领导工作,我们发现女性的参与仅限于有限的职业领域。这些区域在影响力和接近度方面与男性球员和足球比赛无关。这些发现揭示了俱乐部足球内部的性别化子结构,它在核心足球领导角色中保持男性主导地位,并将女性置于领导角色的外围地位。通过对性别薪酬差距报告的话语分析,我们表明男子足球俱乐部通过将男性在组织核心的主导地位自然化,从而使女性的外围包容合法化。这些发现意义重大,因为它们表明,男子足球俱乐部作为赋予男子气概的组织,将女性排除在核心角色之外以保持其男子气概,同时从表面上接受女性担任不挑战足球与霸权男子气概的关联的角色。因此,只有让女性更多地担任核心组织角色,才有可能进行组织变革。在这里,我们为“极度性别化”的组织提供了一个新的理论框架,该框架可以应用于其他体育和男性主导的环境,以分析女性获得核心领导角色的机会。将女性排除在核心角色之外以保持其男性气质,同时从表面上接受女性担任不挑战足球与霸权男性气质关联的角色。因此,只有让女性更多地担任核心组织角色,才有可能进行组织变革。在这里,我们为“极度性别化”的组织提供了一个新的理论框架,该框架可以应用于其他体育和男性主导的环境,以分析女性获得核心领导角色的机会。将女性排除在核心角色之外以保持其男性气质,同时从表面上接受女性担任不挑战足球与霸权男性气质关联的角色。因此,只有让女性更多地担任核心组织角色,才有可能进行组织变革。在这里,我们为“极度性别化”的组织提供了一个新的理论框架,该框架可以应用于其他体育和男性主导的环境,以分析女性获得核心领导角色的机会。
