Description

A comprehensive look at the history of women's football. During World War One, most factory workers were women, and many factories had a ladies' football team. By 1920, football was a major spectator sport, but in 1921 an FA resolution banned women's football from all professional football grounds. It wasn't until 1971 that the ban was lifted.
