Résumé
Before Mary Earps, Jess Fishlock and Lucy Bronze, a generation of trailblazing women's footballers defied the odds. In 1921, the FA banned women from playing football in England, but these rebels refused to quit the game they loved. Leaving behind jobs, families and their homeland, they travelled across Europe in search of professional opportunities in women's football - to countries like Italy and the Netherlands - where they could finally fulfil their footballing potential.
This groundbreaking book uncovers the untold stories of the pioneering women who paved the way for today's Lionesses and global women's football stars. The original Lioness who started a new life in the Netherlands as a teenager; the first woman of colour to play for England; the girl who turned down the chance of international recognition to play in Italy - through their reflections, we follow their extraordinary journeys, the evolution of women's football in England and abroad, and the dreams they still hold for the future of the women's game.
Perfect for readers of women's sport writing, football history and fans of the Lionesses, this is essential reading for anyone who cares about the true story of women's football."One of the most talented and considered minds working in women's football today" THE ATHLETIC"The perfect person to guide us through the constantly changing landscape of women's football" KELLY CATES"One of the most prolific writers about women's football in the UK" EVENING STANDARD"Carrie writes the stories we're convinced would otherwise be lost forever...
