Summary
Studies on sport and gender relations that began in frame sizes discussions in the 80s, mostly of bodies working in this field in the sport in the 90s that dealt with research to the position of female identity and the 2000s work which they discussed the masculinity issues in sport. It was observed that the education and sports colleges were carried out by academicians and most of them were descriptive researches which did not include a gender discussion in the critical context. The journal titled “Futbol” that started to be published on September 28, 1910, by Üsküdarlı Mehmet Burhanettin Bey whom Turkish sports and sports press knew by the name of Burhan Felek is one of the important works in the history of sports press. All the articles and photos published in the journal, which is accepted as the pioneer of the Turkish sports press and published half in Turkish and a half in French, belonged to Burhan Felek. Following Burhan Felek’s journal “Futbol” that was published for 6 months, in July 1911, Selim Sırrı Tarcan introduced a new journal titled “Terbiye ve Oyun”. “Jimnastik” and “Riyaziyat-ı Bedeniyye”, written in 1891 by Faik Üstünidman, one of the physical education teachers of Galatasaray High School, were among the first of sports articles [2]
