| Popis | This work introduces the history of American football which is popular mainly as a men’s sport for 11 players. Women’s American football has the same rules as men’s; however, it is mostly played by a smaller number of players – usually seven. One of American football female teams is the Amazons Club based in Brno, Czech Republic. Altogether, the team consist of 30 players aged 17-31. This work presents the analysis of the daily diet of seven players of the team.
