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.


About the Author

The authors are very well connected, writing for Fair Game magazine (the main publication on women's football) and the FA website, also providing photography for the Telegraph, Fair Game (again), the Arsenal FC matchday programme and various other publications.

5.0 out of 5 stars England's footballers qualify for the World Cup!, 18 Aug 2007
By Andrew Lynn - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Now that I've got your attention, I should point out that it's the England Women's football team, and the tournament is the FIFA Women's World Cup, which takes place in China next month. Despite a constant struggle for recognition and media attention, the women's game has made huge progress in recent years, and the Lionesses will start the tournament with quiet confidence.

To tell the story of this remarkable achievement, the authors of this fine book have gained unprecedented access to the players and their families, managers and backroom staff, in a way that just wouldn't be possible in the agent-driven and celebrity-fuelled world of the men's game. It turns out that not only are the women just as talented as their male counterparts, but that they are more articulate and have more interesting inner lives, as their struggles to reconcile the demands of the modern game with jobs and families are revealed.

With in-depth interviews and superb colour photographs, the emotional roller-coaster ride of the quest for the greatest prize in world football is vividly brought to life.
