What does that say about gender, race, and access to athletics? In this episode of Sportly, the host, Kavitha Davidson, explores the surprising history of field hockey, from its Victorian-era scandal to its role in Title IX and the first NCAA women’s championship. The episode reveals how one British woman, Constance Applebee, revolutionized women’s sports and how class and racial divides complicate field hockey’s legacy. Host: Kavitha A.
