With England Women’s football team reaching the World Cup Final, we have decided to feature our podcast with the CEO of Women in Football, Yvonne Harrison, a little earlier than planned. Yvonne was in the Downtown Den just before the competition kicked off, and in her conversation with DIB boss Frank McKenna she shares her thoughts on the impact the Lionesses have had on the women’s game, the participation of women in football, and the opportunities and challenges the female game faces in the future.

Yvonne is one of the keynote speakers at the Downtown in Business Business of Sport conference in September.
