- "Women´s association football, usually known as women´s football, is the team sport of association football when played by women´s teams only. It is played at the professional level in numerous countries throughout the world and 176 national teams participate internationally. The history of women´s football has seen major competitions being launched at both the national and international levels.
Women´s football has faced many struggles throughout its history. Although its first golden age occurred in the United Kingdom in the early 1920s, with matches attracting large crowds (one match achieved over 50,000 spectators), The Football Association initiated a ban in 1921 in England that disallowed women´s football games from taking place on the grounds used by its member clubs. That ban remained in effect until July 1971." - (en.wikipedia.org 27.09.2021)
