Abstract
Recreational sport participation is valued as a way to improve overall quality of life. However, in developing countries such as Nigeria, past research studies have focused on factors attributed to recreational sport participation of men. Research has yet to investigate factors contributing to recreational sport participation of women. Thus, the purpose of this study was to highlight the experiences of Nigerian women's recreational sport constraints and factors that facilitate their participation. Using data from interviews with women in Lagos, the findings suggest that women experience structural, interpersonal, and intrapersonal constraints, as well as negotiate constraints through prioritizing, compromising, and anticipating. This study contributes to the limited body of research on constraints as it relates to recreational sport of Nigerian women.
