Description

Women's football is the fastest growing participation sport in the UK and across the world.

In England, the FA Women's Super League (FAWSL) is the premier competition for elite players and clubs which has a fascinating organisational structure that is very different from the majority of the football leagues across Europe.

The league has attracted an increased audience in stadiums and in the media, but still faces plenty of opposition.

Football and the FA Women's Super League critically explores women's elite football from a sociological perspective, analysing the growth, governance and impact of the FAWSL from its inception onwards. With analysis of the media coverage of the FAWSL, players' and fans' reactions to and opinions of the league, and assessments of how women's football might expand in the future, this book will appeal to anyone interested in gender, sport and sports governance.
