Sumario:This essay intends to critically reflect on women's soccer, (un)making the history of its practice and the articulation with the vindication of rights and feminisms, while trying to show how at present, in line with the agitation of feminist movements in the current national historical, social and political context, organizations such as Abriendo La Cancha emerge, which fight to vindicate the rights to play and sports for women and sex-gender dissidences. I start from the following questions: What are the barriers faced by organizations that seek to democratize the practice of soccer? Through what actions do they overcome these obstacles? Who are the allies and protagonists in the sports field for the transformation and visibility of territorial experiences? What are the differences between feminist and feminine soccer? Can they be integrated? What are the anchors of soccer experiences located in the territory? Trying to articulate the practices of the organization Abriendo La Cancha with analytical contributions of feminist anthropology, I will try to trace these questions, without the intention of exhausting them in this paper.
