About this event
Women’s football is growing faster than ever, but where next for the game?
Bringing together international researchers, journalists, and sporting leaders and players, the event examines key issues in equality, governance, media representation, player welfare, and the commercial growth of the women’s game.
Speakers include RTÉ’s Marie Crowe and Mark Tighe of the Sunday Independent (Girls in Green), Dr Katie Liston (Ulster University), Tommy Carberry (Head of Shamrock Rovers Girls Academy) and representatives from the Irish Football Supporters Partnership, the FAI, Shamrock Rovers FC, the UK Football Supporters Association, CONIFA, and the German Football Association.
