Summary/Abstract: There is no doubt that contemporary role of sport exceeds the borders of competition and spectatorship. As a cultural, anthropological and sociological phenomenon influencing politics and economies, it has been studied from the whole range of perspectives available to social scientists. Even though there is long-lasting tradition of social studies on sport in Poland, with the prominent journal “International Review for Sociology of Sport” currently published by SAGE, established in Poland in 1966 and affiliated at the Academy of Physical Education in Warsaw, for many years the research into the world of football has been scarce in Poland. Usually, any research agenda was realized within the Academies of Physical Education, with Polish scholars rarely taking part in academic debates in international forums.
