From well attended matches in the late nineteenth century to an outright ban from 1921, women’s football in England has had a bumpy ride. Now the profile of the game and its stars has never been higher. 

Sheffield Hallam PhD graduate and sports broadcaster, Carrie Dunn, has published several books on England’s women footballers and her latest, Woman Up: Pitches, Pay and Periods – The Progress and Potential of Women’s Football, has been shortlisted at the 2024 Sports Book Awards.
