妇女在第一次世界大战期间首次参加澳大利亚规则足球的启示是全面理解男性和女性理想如何受到挑战的重要因素，并在一般社会变迁的时期被体育实践重新定义。本文揭示了妇女法典的起源是在西澳大利亚州，早在1915年就发生了比赛。三年后，随着战争接近尾声，妇女参与带有强烈军事和爱国色彩的慈善比赛的模式在该准则的中心地带维多利亚州被采用。诸如此类的调查表明了第一次世界大战期间体育与性别之间的复杂关系，为深入理解一场被广泛研究的军事冲突提供了空间，并为那些哀叹女子足球研究静态议程的人指明了前进的方向。
The revelation that women first played Australian Rules football during the period of the Great War is an important element in overall understandings of how both masculine and feminine ideals were challenged and redefined by sporting practices in a time of general social flux. This paper reveals that the genesis of the women's code was in Western Australia, where contests occurred as early as 1915. Three years later, with the war nearing its conclusion, the template of women's involvement in charity matches with strong military and patriotic overtones was adopted in the state of Victoria, the code's heartland. Investigations such as this one, indicative of the complex relationships between sport and gender during the First World War, offer scope for deeper comprehension of a much-studied military conflict, and point the way forward for those that bemoan the static agenda of research into women's football.
