Katia Kennedy: Women’s Sport in Auckland

In this series we present research projects from the 2023 Summer Scholars exploring aspects of Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland's history. https://ahi.auckland.ac.nz/ In this track we hear from Katia Kennedy who investigated the attitudes surrounding women in sport from the turn of the 20th Century. Katia examines the development and growth of women's cricket and women's marching in Auckland during this time. Katia Kennedy's research was supported by an Auckland Library Heritage Trust John Stacpoole Scholarship.
