La incorporación de la mujer canaria a la actividad física a comienzos del siglo xx (1900-1936) a través de la prensa canaria
Sport was not the first social conquest of women in the Canary Islands. However, since the beginning of the 20th century it has been present in their life. The emancipation from domestic work, the attainment of some rights and British influences, introduced women to physical activity. This research aims to study the entry of women into sports in the early twentieth century through the historical, socio-cultural, educational and political moment from the analysis of the Canarian press. For this, press articles published in newspapers between 1900 and 1936 have been collected and analyzed. The results show how a part of society was in favor of women joining sports, although with restrictions, a situation that will not progress with the beginning of the Spanish Civil War.
