Women's Rights Meet Sports History
Women's rights meet sports history in this compelling journey through 140 years of women's soccer. For decades, the women's game has been a powerful vehicle for sparking change, yet dedicated fans still know little about the pioneers who kept playing despite bans and even violence. Play On uses soccer fouls as a framework to share stories of dangerous play, obstruction and delay of game, along with examples of women 'playing on' to remarkable effect, transforming not just the game but the culture around it.
