63
Q

Reasons for the increased opportunities for women in modern-day elite sport

A

More equal opportunities (more sports are socially acceptable for women to compete in + the Sex Discrimination Act has been passed - helps prevent it + the women’s war effort improved views on the physical capabilities of women), Increased media coverage e.g. the Women’s Super League on BT sport + women’s football = on FIFA 16, More female role models e.g. more female officials, coaches + players, More provision in school P.E in lessons + clubs, Increased promotion by the F.A e.g. the women’s F.A cup final = now at Wembley, More clubs (local + professional),Increased funding increases participation @ grass roots + elite level, More free time for women in society, Better wages available in female elite sport, There’s now a Women’s Referee Development Pathway.
