Strategic Scheduling for Women’s Football
The games this weekend are happening when the men’s teams aren’t playing which means women’s football can get more attention without the Premier League games happening at the same time. All the WSL and Women’s Championship games are gonna be at the main stadiums of the home teams which makes the women’s game look better. This is part of making women’s football bigger and more popular.
Growing Attention and Investment in Women’s Sports
The Chelsea vs Manchester City match shows how women’s sports is getting bigger. People should come watch this exciting game that could change who wins the title. Also this weekend is special because of things like Rebecca Welch being the first woman to be a referee in a Premier League match.
Players like Steph Houghton keep showing everyone what’s possible even though she couldn’t play in Euro 2022 cause she got hurt. Her story shows how tough and passionate players in women’s football are these days.
