Women's Football: history makers, record breakers
Episode 75
Wednesday, 16 July, 2025
Have you ever wondered why football is called the beautiful game, why male footballers are paid so much, and female footballers much less so? As the UEFA Women's EURO 2025 Championships are hosted in Switzerland we look at the rise and fall and rise again of the women's game. Why was the First World War a golden age? What was the impact of the ban from the FA in 1921? And can England's Lionesses retain their 2022 trophy? Today 2.3 million girls play football around the world - are you one of them? Narrated by Georgia Vyvyan Script by Poppy Faure Walker Produced by Camilla Akers-Douglas Sound editing by Lou Sawdy Theme music by James Burrell Music Instagram @wonderpodcasts X @wonder_podcasts Facebook @wonderpodcasts Email camilla@wonderaudio.co.uk or henrietta@wonderaudio.co.uk
