Abstract
This study explores how the dual-segmented sports labour market and gender inequality intersect. It also defines the complex patterns of discrimination experienced by non-regular female instructors using the concept of intersectionality. Nine non-regular female instructors of school athletic teams with more than three years’ experience were recruited, and data were collected through a literature review and in-depth interviews. The results can be summarized as follows. First, non-regular female instructors of school athletic teams were positioned as ‘care worker’ and ‘livelihood assistant’ because of women’s social identity. Second, they experienced employment, status/power, and opportunity inequalities. This suggests that non-regular women worker are marginalized in the sports labour market, and educational and policy measures are required to mitigate inequality.
