Sport is closely related to society and social phenomena; changes in society affect changes in sport. Throughout history, women have gained more and more rights, and this has reflected on the sport in which there is an increasing number of women's participation, especially in football. Football was considered a sport intended only for men, but modernization of society contributed to the inclusion of more and more women in that sport. With women's participation in football, numerous social issues are linked to gender inequalities, prejudices and discrimination, inequalities in sports and the marginalization of athletes and their sporting achievements. Understanding current gender and sex distinctions can lead to gradual reduction of social prejudice and affect the reduction of rejudice of women in football. This would improve sport in Croatian society and Croatian society as a whole. This would result in the development and distribution of women's football and futsal as a seemingly young and insufficiently developed sport in Croatia. The aim of this paper is to understand and analyze the attitudes in football with a focus on futsal. Based on nine interviews involving the players of the Croatian Women's First Futsal League, the status of sports in the Croatian society was analyzed with emphasis on football / futsal and the position of women in Croatian society and sport. Parallel with this, theoretical considerations on these areas are presented and compared to the opinion of football players.
