The global tournament in 2023 was a pivotal moment in Women’s sport. We saw an entire nation rally behind the Matildas. It was the moment when athlete’s dreams became real and football captured the hearts and minds of a nation. We saw viewership increase ten-fold, revenue in women’s sport soar and people united for a common love of the Matildas. This type of groundbreaking success doesn’t just happen, it takes careful strategy and consideration. Hear from Kyah, Sarah and Ann on what it takes to build - and sustain - Australia's favourite sports team.

Athlete's such as Tayla through their hard work and determination have forged the future for women in sport by showcasing the 'anything is possible' mentality and becoming the real role models for our future athletes.
