Women's World Cup: why are there so few female coaches in football?

Retrieved on:

Wednesday, August 9, 2023

The number of female referees has increased by 21%, and female coaches have risen by a whopping 75%.

Key Points:

The number of female referees has increased by 21%, and female coaches have risen by a whopping 75%.
In Spain, Barcelona are setting the standard for world record attendances, with 91,648 fans watching their Women’s Champions League game against Wolfsburg in April 2022.
Italy, with two female coaches among ten top-division posts, and Germany, with just one of 12, fare even worse.
So, why is there such a dearth of female coaches in women’s football?

Women need women for inspiration

Many would argue there’s a need for female coaches at the top levels of women’s football to act as an inspiration for young, aspiring female coaches (and players too, of course).
However, when female coaches act in ways that are inconsistent with gender stereotypes – meaning assertive and decisive – they’re considered unfeminine.
The second element relates to the high competence threshold – women coaches in elite sport face higher expected standards but lower pay than male coaches.
And the final element identifies how female coaches can be perceived as competent or likeable, but rarely both.

A bright future?

At the elite level, for the first time we now have a generation of players who are full-time professionals, just like their male counterparts.
So what does the future hold for elite female coaches?
Some of the current crop of elite female players will naturally be expected to move into coaching when their playing careers come to an end.
This may take time, but at least progress is being made on various fronts for the girls and young women coming through.

Women’s football review proposes hard-hitting changes to address ongoing inequalities

Retrieved on:

Tuesday, July 18, 2023

The review, entitled: raising the bar – reframing the opportunity in women’s football has been eagerly awaited by academics, sports organisations, sports media, football fans, players and coaches alike.

Key Points:

The review, entitled: raising the bar – reframing the opportunity in women’s football has been eagerly awaited by academics, sports organisations, sports media, football fans, players and coaches alike.
The review followed a recommendation made by the fan-led review of football governance (2021) and investigation began in September 2022.
The ten recommendations are detailed and challenging, illustrating the highly intersectional and complex composition of football.

What the report recommends

In particular, to provide freedom to NewCo (the new professional league infrastructure) to make its own decisions.
Also, a dedicated broadcasting space for women’s football is recommended, along with a need to take better care of fans.
The report calls upon the government to uphold its commitment to equal opportunity for girls in school sport and demands more investment for grassroots football, as well.
Finally, the report urges more collaboration between the FA, Premier League and the Football Foundation to ensure facility funding is transparent.

Implementing the recommendations

The ban on women playing on affiliated pitches for 50 years has taken its toll on progression.
The tangible removal of that barrier in the 1970s, however, was not followed by a lifting of the social and cultural stigma and resistance to girls and women playing football.
There will be challenges for implementing the recommendations of the review.
There may be resistance to these recommendations from those in privileged positions (as already seen in relation to recreational sports clubs), but perseverance is key.

Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken is the latest film to give a monster a makeover

Retrieved on:

Wednesday, July 5, 2023

When you think of a kraken you probably think of a sea monster of enormous size, lashing out to sink ships that sail too close to it.

Key Points:

When you think of a kraken you probably think of a sea monster of enormous size, lashing out to sink ships that sail too close to it.
Hans Egede, a Norwegian missionary, described a kraken as covering the whole sea when it surfaced and capturing victims with its claws.
Even though the production crew of the original film knew that the kraken was Norwegian, they decided that “as a name for a sea monster, it was too good to miss”.
Ruby Gillman’s approach to the kraken upends these representations, showing us a softer side to the beast.

Not so scary

They try to blend in with humans and explain away any peculiarities by claiming that they are originally from Canada.
The Gillman family take on human appearance, colourful skin tone not withstanding, and only transform into their gigantic form when in salt water.
Their roots can be traced back to the sirens of ancient Greece, who lured sailors onto rocks with their songs.
By making krakens protectors and mermaids destroyers, the film continues a wider cultural trend of questioning who the monsters really are.

Beastly biology

Pixar’s Turning Red used its heroine’s transformation into a giant red panda, sometimes cute but also monstrous, as a metaphor for beginning adolescence.
For Ruby, discovering her body’s true potential when she first encounters salt water leads her to question everything in her life she has previously taken for granted.
