This study is based on the existing gender bias culture in the sports settings. The gender barriers are not only confined to single gender i.e. female, it has been realized that the male counterparts also face these barriers while selecting an event for them e.g. taking part in synchronized diving and gymnastics etc. as it reflects the feminine image of this gender in society. The present study gives specific emphasis on female gender in relation to sports participation. For the purpose of the study 150 females along with their parents were selected as sample from the northern region. The data was collected by direct interview with female sports person and their parents in order to extract information in relation to sports participation. The study revealed that may be there has been dramatically increase in the number of female participants in sports but, the cultural and societal barriers does not provide them conducive environment and equal opportunities as males in the sports settings. Moreover, it has been observed that media coverage is also confined and limited to the male domain in the sports arena. Further, it was realized that we should incorporate policies and provide infrastructure and female oriented environment in order to increase female participation in sports.
