#IRiseWeRise

To celebrate this year’s Women’s History Month, we marked our ongoing commitment to the growth of women’s football with a two day Regal FC event in Manchester that explored what it means to succeed as a woman in the football industry. We have brought together industry trailblazers, leading players and grassroots teams to share experiences and invaluable advice.

#IRiseWeRise is all about sharing success – however the journey towards it looks.

TACKLING STEREOTYPES

To highlight our ongoing commitment towards helping the players of tomorrow become their best selves, we held a captivating panel discussion at the iconic Old Trafford stadium. Industry-leading women’s football content creator and presenter Felicia Pennant sat down with TRUK founder and first recorded trans referee Lucy Clark, Goal Diggers Podcast host Moyo Abinoa and This Fan Girl’s Partnerships Manager Dannielle Harper, debunking all things women-in-football and representation within the football space.
