Woman Up : Pitches, Pay and Periods26 Oct 2023
"Written with energy, passion and unrivaled insight, Woman Up addresses the phenomenon that is women’s football, past and present, shedding light not only on generations of struggle and often unheard of victories and success, but on the issues that women still face today. I could not put this down, so rich it is and so fascinating, meticulously researched and bubbling with real life. Carrie Dunn’s Woman Up is essential reading of our times!"
- Christy Lefteri, Author "What's so great about Carrie Dunn's latest book Woman Up is that it's the perfect resource for pretty much anything you've ever wondered about women and football, so you can dip into it and come out fully informed, but it's also a lot of fun to read. It may reflect on some of the most irritating traditions of the game - like disrespect for its female Olympians and World Cup winners and the absence of suitable kit for girls - but you still leave feeling uplifted and optimistic about the future of the sport" - Kate Mason, broadcaster "Dunn's meticulous research and careful choice of words leaves the reader entertained and informed in equal measure" - Matt Davies-Adams, Commentator and Broadcaster Carrie shines a light on the evolution of women’s football and the gender gaps that still persist – on issues such as injuries, sportswear, period taboos and diversity. Packed with practical advice and first-hand accounts from leading female players, coaches and administrators around the world and across generations, this is a unique approach to telling the global story of women’s football.
