The winter months are kicking in and for the majority of women in the United Kingdom, are most likely to find trawling from the shopping centres of the country and tweaking their feet in the last patent leather stiletto shoe, in the hope that it matches the sparkly outfit she just before the annual Office Christmas party purchased.
In this scenario is where hundreds of women.But not every woman in Britain is the owner of a Topshop loyalty card and when they were asked to live without their mascara for a week would faint. There are always, of course, the women you will find at the bottom of the pub, pride of their beloved team lower Strip, pint in hand, bellowing loudly on the TV screen.
Football, particularly in the United Kingdom, it is always associated with men and masculinity. when we think of football, we probably won't conjure up a picture of eleven femme fatale revolves around the field, its wild flowing in the wind. (Of course, this would never happen-its of course, be tied, but go hand in hand with the image)
However, there's no denying that football is widely considered to be one man's game. a beautiful game, certainly, but a man a anyway. Statistics in the past has shown that the number of women team sports as a full time Pro in the United Kingdom zero. But with the increasing number of women's soccer players and women's teams, can change everything?
Vicki Christopher, Captain of the women's soccer team at the University of Winchester, think this is certainly the case.
She says, "women's soccer is definitely on the up. over the last few years our college football team in numbers increased considerably. It uses the case at the school where guys played football and netball girls played. Nowadays, however, school children have a much better balance sport. "
Maureen McGonigle of Scottish competition for women's football has a similar position. She believes that although there is still much to be on the same line with men, women's soccer is now getting recognized worldwide as the fastest growing team sport for women.
It is growing all the time. "women's football offers so many possibilities for everyone, whether it's like a referee, coach or even a administrate.Someone once said: "the future female", and this confirms the belief of many who saw the amazing growth of the game for women and girls."
But where did it all start? believe it or not, women have a ball kicking around a pitch for almost a century. the was first widely popular at the moment of the first world war, about 1917.
Roles of women began to change as she took on the roles and responsibilities that are always previously met by men.War women's teams were mostly charities to raise money for war.
The most successful team of this era was Dick Kerrs ladies of Preston.They played on average crowds of 2500 with all their proceeds will go to charities.
Towards the end of the war, women's teams had more across the country, attracting generous sized crowd, and by the 1920s, the women's soccer in England was more popular than ever, with the crowd sizes even larger than for men.
Ironically, was that to the decrease of the football of women led; shortly thereafter decided to prohibit the FA women's soccer to play Football League grounds, claiming that the resources they had that were actually used for other purposes.
However, according to Sir Norman Chester's research centre of the football of the University of Leicester, the real sense of the ban was found in the FA-statement of the "strong opinion was that the game of football is very suitable for women, and should not be encouraged".
Later, the FA not allowed their reasons for women play.The ban was not until 1969, at that time, women's football practical faded into obscurity. after the women FA was founded in 1969, it seemed women's football was really on the increase. the first women's World Cup, held in China in 1991, it should be noted on this, and since then has developed exponentionally, with sixteen teams from all over the world who represent their country. in other words, if the women's soccer on the up, which it most certainly seems to be the case, then why women games rarely feature on programs such as game of the day and soccer AM? TV dramas such as Dream Team and footballers ' Wives were certainly not centered around women's soccer. it seems that even in this so-called modern age, still people out there that Caz. O'Shaughnessy, Manager of the women's soccer team at the University of Lincoln: "the woman are the minority. There may be more of us are in quantity, but have the power, making them the most men."
Now that I convinced that the reason for this is not so black and white is if men look better in shorts, so they are better footballers. hard as it sounds, it's back to what was written in stone ages ago-that women place at home and not on a football field play a man's game '? Caz O'Shaughnessy think this is a stereotype that will never change no matter how hard the women for pushing: "history has always made men and women in the home with the heads of families take care of the children. we try hard to keep it separate from stereotypes, but the ideologies are set up that it will never change."Sports journalist Chris Ray does not agree with this, and think that there is now much more national media coverage of the women's game than ever before, benefiting from the immense: "women's soccer would be greater than one day of men. his presence and the stereotypes of only one man game are now all but disappeared, I would say. the default will continue to improve as the public and young people more aware of the women's soccer."
