Landmark new book reveals tortured birth of women’s soccer

Below is an article by award-winning journalist and author, Louise Evans OAM. 
Louise is a women-in-sport’s media pioneer.  She was the first female sports journalist hired by The Sydney Morning Herald and the first female sports editor at The Australian. 
She looks in depth at the establishment of several early women’s soccer teams in the 1920’s, the resulting backlash and their ultimate success in overcoming the challenges of gender bias….a common thread that also inspired the author of Australian Soccer - From the Beginning.
