[quote=Anonymous][quote] The English Women's Super League has struck a multi-million pound television deal to show live matches in the United Kingdom from the 2021-22 season.

The Football Association called the move a "watershed moment" in the women's game in the UK, with 22 live matches on BBC TV and up to 44 matches on Sky Sports. WSL clubs will receive 75% of the investment revenue, with the remaining 25% going to clubs in the Women's Championship.

The FA also said the UK's deal is worth "significantly" more than the rights in the WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association) and the NWSL (National Women's Soccer League) in the United States.

"It is one of the biggest deals commercially, definitely for women's football in terms of a domestic deal, and up there for women's sport," FA Director of the Women's Game, Kelly Simmons, told the BBC.[/quote]

The European clubs are paying women players more vs the NWSL and the soccer is a lot better. Guess when you already have the facilities it is easier to another team or two. [/quote]
