We know we said we were on holidays, but we have a few little surprise gifts for you all over the next couple of weeks. We know, we shouldn’t have (thank us by leaving a review?😆)

As we look at what 2023 has in store, we couldn’t look past the FIFA Women’s World Cup (soccer), coming to Australia and New Zealand in July. Don’t underestimate how big this event will be - tickets sales are already outperforming every previous Women’s World Cup, and spectator numbers at club matches have been soaring in Europe and North America. 

With all this in mind, we talk to former Matilda, SBS commentator and Football Australia’s Head of Women’s Football, Women’s World Cup Legacy and Inclusion, Sarah Walsh. Sarah is absolutely passionate about the grassroots game in Australia and about using the Women’s World Cup to supercharge women’s sport participation in this country. 

Don’t freak out if you don’t know anything about soccer - this is interesting stuff and as always, there's so much more to it than just the sport itself.
