A large part of their vision involves women’s football. As the introduction to the 10th principle states: “Women’s football in Australia has made significant progress (underpinned by the success of the Matildas) and continues to present the greatest opportunity for growth in Australian football. However, it is in the fine print where FFA’s vision for women’s football starts to blur; so scant are details and timelines. And community engagement potential becomes limited as W-League players are only visible and accessible to fans for a few months per year. In other words, the document presents a vision of what women’s football in Australia currently is and a vision of what it could be, but not much else in between.
