Product Description
Product Description
When England's Lionesses qualified for the 2007 Women's World Cup, it was the first time they had done so for twelve years. Today's squad, coached by former star player Hope Powell, boasts some of the fittest and most skillful footballers this country has ever produced. Their passion for the game has seen them juggle intensive training schedules with jobs, studies and motherhood, while career-threatening injuries have been faced and overcome. Despite crashing out of the European Championship on home turf in 2005, their determination has made them a force to be reckoned with in the international arena. From BBC pundit Sue Smith's determined bid to break back into the team to Rachel Yankey's MBE, this book steps into the lives of the players both on and off the pitch. With many having struggled just to be allowed to play the game they love, this England team all have a story to tell.
