Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the most prolific international women’s football tournament—the FIFA Women’s World Cup—through media, fandom and how mediated women’s soccer can improve on a global scale. Women’s soccer has exploded in terms of media exposure, television audiences and live spectatorship. This book explores those macro-level issues, while also digging into micro-level topics such as Megan Rapinoe’s celebrations and political activism, VAR reviews, LGBTQ imagery, and cultural obstacles for women’s football in Central-Eastern Europe and Nigeria. Using an interdisciplinary approach, scholars look at issues through the lenses of feminist theory, cultural studies, rhetorical criticism, political economy, performative sport fandom, autoethnography, and more. Thus, the book is important reading for students, researchers and media practitioners with interests in women’s soccer, gender in sports media, coverage of women’s sport, and sport fandom.

Download or read book Women's Soccer: the Official History of the Unofficial World Cups written by Thibault Rabeux and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-29 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know that a 15-year-old girl scored a hat-trick in the final of a World Cup in front of 110,000 people in Mexico? Or that prior to the formation of the United States Women's National Team in 1985, the country was successful represented in tournaments around the world by a club of young players from Texas? Well before the first ever official Women's World cup organised by FIFA in 1991, all sorts of unofficial tournaments were held around the world, in countries as far apart as Mexico, Italy, Japan and China. While some were put together by money-grabbing businessmen and others by women looking to promote the cause of feminism, the "renegade" tournaments held in the 1970s and 1980s played a crucial role in the development of women's soccer. Without these competitions, women would likely never have got the chance to have a World Cup of their own officially recognized by FIFA at any point in the 20th century. In addition to the pressure that they put on the international federation, the unofficial Women's World Cups were responsible for many an interesting - yet largely unknown - chapter in the history of women's football.This book traces the exploits of the first world champion women's teams as well as the lengthy process that finally led to official recognition. It contains stories never before documented, combining politics, sporting prowess and anecdotes the like of which would be impossible to imagine in today's context. The following chapters will take you through the seminal tournaments and matches from the 1970s and 1980s courtesy of exclusive interviews with the players of the time, those pioneers of women's soccer who represented the likes of France, Canada, Italy and Belgium. If France was able to host the Women's World Cup in 2019, it is thanks in no small part to the campaigning of a band of men and particularly women in the early 1990s. This book is about them - and what they achieved. About the author: Thibault Rabeux worked as a journalist on women's soccer for various French specialised media between 2012 and 2015. Here he combines his passion for the history of sport with a desire to shine a light on certain events that have long been under the radar.

Book excerpt: "It was a pleasure to read this comprehensive and insightful work by leading scholars on gender and football about the 2019 Women's World Cup. With discussions from post-colonial lenses of Women of Color, fan appreciation and adoration, to queer relationships and even the legendary statuesque pose by World Champion Megan Rapinoe, this book interrogates the many layers of complexity in an intelligent and generous manner. From an in-depth analysis of media representation, lingering sexism, and complex discussions about racial inequities in the sport, this is a necessary read for journalists, pundits, academics, and fans interested in critical discussions that are embedded into women's football." -- Shireen Ahmed, Writer and award-winning sports activist focusing on Muslim women in sports.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under the Lights and in the Dark: Untold Stories of Women's Soccer takes an unprecedented look inside the lives of professional football players around the world – from precarious positions in underfunded teams and leagues, to sold-out stadiums and bright lights. Award-winning filmmaker and journalist Gwendolyn Oxenham tells the stories of the phenoms, underdogs, and nobodies – players willing to follow the game wherever it takes them. Under the Lights and in the Dark takes us inside the world of women's soccer, following players across the globe, from Portland Thorns star Allie Long, who trains in an underground men's league in New York City; to English national Fara Williams, who hid her homelessness from her teammates while playing for the English national team. Oxenham takes us to Voronezh, Russia, where players battle more than just snowy pitches in pursuing their dream of playing pro, and to a refugee camp in Denmark, where Nadia Nadim, now a Danish international star, honed her skills after her family fled from the Taliban. Whether you're a newcomer to the sport or a die-hard fan, this is an inspiring book about stars' beginnings and adventures, struggles and hardship, and, above all, the time-honored romance of the game.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complete history of women’s football in Great Britain, from its Victorian games beginning in 1881 to 2022 and planning for the Euro Finals. In The History of Women’s Football, author Jean Williams demonstrates how women’s football began as a professional sport, and has only recently returned to these professional roots in the UK. This is because there was a fifty-year Football Association ‘ban’ on women playing on pitches affiliated to the governing body in England. The other British associations followed suit. Why was women’s football banned in 1921? Why did it take until 1969 for a Women’s Football Association to form? Why did it take until 1995 for England to qualify for a Women’s World Cup? Answers to these key questions are supplemented across the chapters by personal accounts of the players who defied the ban, at home and abroad, along with the personal costs, and rewards, of being footballing pioneers. Praise for The History of Women’s Football “This book was very informed, detailed and a very good read. As a football fan, I was staggered by how much I didn’t know and how if football had been better supported at the beginning of the century there is a good chance women’s football would be on a par with the men’s game now . . . this was a very interesting read and I would happily recommend this book to fellow football fans.” —UK Historian

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the most comprehensive mapping and analysis of women’s football in Oceania and is the first to examine the game’s historical development alongside social, political, and cultural issues, weaving origin stories with players’ day-to-day challenges. Alongside presentation of the contemporary state of play and its overarching narrative of women’s game in the region, the book highlights key issues, discusses established and emergent themes, examines relevant contexts, investigates the status of the game at local and national levels, and lays foundations for further research. Its primary objective is to detail and illustrate the historical, social, and organisational development of the women’s game, including international tournaments, national competitions, and teams in an effort to amplify the efforts of the individuals that made or make a significant contribution to the game. It draws on extensive formal and informal discussion, realises insight, proposes the means and related fields of further investigation, and generates new knowledge alongside the uncovering of old. Women’s Football in Oceania covers key events, actors, and moments and fills a gap in research for scholars of sports history and women’s history.
