Abstract (English): This study explores gender differences in sports dropout, analyzing the complex, gender-specific factors behind quitting sports. Using a mixed-methods approach combining questionnaires and focus groups, we identify unique social, psychological, and physical reasons affecting males and females differently. Findings suggest the need for gender-sensitive interventions in sports, highlighting the importance of tailored strategies to enhance long-term participation and equity for all genders.

Abstract (Italian): Questo studio esplora le differenze di genere nell'abbandono sportivo, analizzando i fattori specifici e complessi che portano alla rinuncia. Utilizzando un approccio misto con questionari e focus group, identifichiamo le ragioni uniche sociali, psicologiche e fisiche che influenzano diversamente maschi e femmine. I risultati suggeriscono la necessità di interventi sensibili al genere nello sport, evidenziando l'importanza di strategie mirate per migliorare la partecipazione e l'equità a lungo termine per tutti i generi.
