The paper links two fields of research: subcultural studies and sociology of sport. The aim of the paper is two-fold. First, it presents the current state of research of subcultures with a brief historical outline and theoretical ground. Second, it outlines sporting subcultures together with the specific tool for exploring them – the subcultural capital. The nature of subcultural capital, which is based on authentic subcultural practices, suggests possible further extension of subcultural studies which are often limited to youth and lifestyle sport communities. Thus, it indicates on going relevance of the concept of subculture which is questioned in contemporary post-subcultural studies.

This study provides a critical introduction into and overview of the state of research on subcultures in both the international and Czech and Slovak contexts. At the same time, it presents a seldom-used historical source – fanzines – specific in their formation out of resistance to modern institutions, which excludes them from the scope of activity of standard archival practices. Therefore, fanzines have the potential to provide information, which may not be captured in standard sources, and thus contribute to the writing of the “history from below“. As alternative media, fanzines offer, in the first place, an insight into the opinions of their creators and reflect events within certain communities, scenes, or subcultures. But at the same time, they serve as a relevant testimony to the societal, political, and cultural life and institutions of the time.
