For decades, women’s sport received limited attention, smaller crowds, and far less coverage than men’s sport.

This magazine-style English lesson explores how social media, investment, sponsorship, and a new generation of athletes and fans have helped transform women’s sport.

Students read an original article, learn useful vocabulary, and take part in discussion, critical thinking, speaking, and writing activities about sport, equality, media coverage, investment, and changing attitudes.
