Welcome to "Fearless and Fierce: Celebrating Women's Sports"—the show where every stat tells a story and every game is a testament to resilience. In this episode, we journey to Northeast Wales to witness the rise of Wrexham AFC women, a team of fierce competitors who are redefining passion in football.

We delve into the club's rich history, starting from its foundation in 1864, to the recent triumphs and challenges of Wrexham's women's team. From thrilling matches to record-breaking crowds, these women are not just making headlines—they're writing history.

Meet the players: Rosie Hughes, juggling her role as a top scorer and a full-time prison officer; Lily Jones, balancing work shifts with game-winning tackles; Rebecca, whose iconic goals secured significant promotions; and Amber Lightfoot, whose remarkable speed makes her a standout player. Together, they embody grit, sacrifice, and unyielding spirit, all while advocating for pay equity in women's football.

Join us as we explore their stories of determination and the ongoing fight for equality in sports. Because women's football isn’t just a battle for visibility—it's a crusade for rightful acknowledgment and support. Experience the revolution, cheer for change, and demand equality in the beautiful game.
