Women's Football with Cambridge United and Cambridge City F.C.

In this episode, TCS podcaster Scotia Smith explores the empowerment and prejudices of women's football. In the first half of the episode she is joined by the manager of Cambridge United's women's team, Darren Marjoram, who talks about his motivations for coaching women's football, the history of the team, and the disparity between men's and women's football on an economic level. In the second half of the episode (38:00 onwards), Scotia talks to two members of the reserve team for Cambridge City women's F.C, who talk about their love for the sport as well as some of the difficulties they have personally encountered. This episode is an eye-opening investigation into the work that still needs to be done to elevate women's football to the level of men's, and hopefully will encourage more people to invest in women's sport.
