This study analyzes Brazilian articles on women’s football and futsal. It examined 38 national Physical Education journals indexed under Qualis Capes in area 21, which publish sports-related studies. We found 76 articles that were classified in nine categories and divided by year of publication. The results showed that the first publications occurred at the end of the 90’s and a significant increase took place after 2008. The Brazilian Journal of Futsal and Football – the main journal on those sports – was created in the same period. We found a homogeneous distribution between male and female first authors while co-authorship was mostly male. Gender studies represent about one third of all articles on women’s football. This reinforces the importance of the discussion about women’s empowerment for female football and futsal development.
