    beyond the game: meet event manager fatima walsh

    Fatima Walsh is a Sports Event Manager at Venues Live. But her journey into the sports industry started by serving beers and pies in the food kiosk at Wembley Stadium. From working with the England National Football Team at FIFA World Cups, to bringing game day to life every week for the Central Coast Mariners in the A-League, Fatima opens up on how getting thrown in the deep end helped her become an Event Manager who can adapt to any challenge that comes her way on game day. The ‘Beyond the Game’ podcast series has been developed in collaboration with the New South Wales Office of Sport. Part of the Her Future in Sport initiatives, we’re helping the Office of Sport to light the spark of inspiration in young women and adolescent girls to show the breadth of interesting and fulfilling careers across the broader sports sector. From creative to curious, scientific to sporty, we want every girl to see that there is a place for her in a sports career.

    the next: is women's sport getting better or just bigger?

    THE NEXT is a monthly podcast from The Female Athlete Project. Each episode, futurist and former athlete Reanna Browne joins Chloe and Bez to explore what’s changing in women’s sport, before it hits the headlines. We shine a light on the pockets of the future already here - the signals of change that are quietly [or not-so-quietly] reshaping women's sport in the present. Not to predict what’s coming, but to notice what’s already in motion. This week, we discuss three signals of change regarding the gap between growth and progress in women's sport and whether the big boom is being felt by those at the bottom as well as the top.  *** MORE THAN A GAME GAME, the ultimate women’s sports trivia game is here: Grab your copy now: https://thefemaleathleteproject.com/collections/all-products-collection Plus, The Women's Sports Fan Club has arrived.
