This article discusses a new memory of feminism in Argentina through. an ethnographic analysis of a location created by the feminist soccer team Norita F.C. The methodology ranges from techniques of observing participants to participant observation during two-years of fieldwork (2019-2021), using ethnographic descriptions, discursive fragments, and photographic images as sources. Creating this place of memory, the text offers a case-study in connection to the crossover in the recent past national soccer and feminism. Conceptually, the text seeks to connect two different fields of study: memories and feminism Anthropologically and historically, it articulates gender, memories, and feminism from the perspective an unprecedented Argentinian political present. This contrasts t with the dominant corpus on feminist records, based on trauma and violence. Ethnographically, it is a case study that adds to the few existing works on feminist soccer and sheds light on an issue that remains relatively unexplored.
