A LIVING HISTORY OF
QUEENSLAND WOMEN'S FOOTBALL
It’s almost 100 years since
the story of Queensland
Women’s Football began.
IN GATHERING CLUB, TEAM AND INDIVIDUAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND SHARING THEM WITH A BROADER AUDIENCE, THIS PROJECT IS SHINING A LIGHT ON A FORGOTTEN PART OF OUR LOCAL SPORTS HERITAGE.
WITH MUCH MORE TO COME
... let the Queensland women's football community tell its own story.
"Women can’t play football. They don’t even know the basic rules. When tackled, they get up and play on. They don’t pretend to be hurt. They don’t dive. They don’t get opponents sent off. They don’t wrestle at corner kicks. Worst of all, they don’t hassle the match officials. As any fool who has watched the men’s Premiership knows, that is not the way to play football."
