After a successful 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup, what does the future hold for women’s football? My guest is journalist and author Carrie Dunn, who discusses some of the topics she raises in her latest book Woman Up: Pitches, Pay and Periods. The Progress and Potential of Women’s Football.
We cover a wide range of subjects, from the legacy of the World Cup, to the treatment of women in football media and why kit and boot design needs to adapt to female bodies rather than just making smaller men’s gear. It’s a fascinating listen.
