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.
Despite economic constraints and systemic challenges, Wrexham AFC women are proving that talent deserves parity. As they break barriers and record new milestones, this episode highlights their journey for recognition and fair compensation amidst a complex sports framework.
Join us as we explore their stories of determination and the ongoing fight for equality in sports.
