Before Mary Earps, Jess Fishlock, and Lucy Bronze, there were the trailblazers who defied the odds.
In 1921, the FA banned women from playing football, but these rebels refused to quit. Leaving behind jobs, families, and their homeland, they sought opportunities abroad, where they could fulfil their footballing potential.
This book uncovers the untold stories of those pioneering women who paved the way for today’s stars. The original Lioness who started a new life in the Netherlands as a teenager, the first woman of colour to play for England, the girl who gave up the chance of international recognition to play in Italy – through their reflections, we explore their extraordinary journeys, the evolution of women’s football, and the dreams they still hold for the future.
'Fabulous' That's So Offside Podcast
'Carrie writes the stories we're convinced would otherwise be lost forever... a MUST READ! Be prepared to feel aggrieved and inspired in equal measure' The Offside Rule podcast
'A vital and beautifully told piece of football history... essential reading for anyone who cares about the true story of women's football' Anita Asante, former England international and football pundit
'Flying the Flag tells the stories you otherwise will never hear... So please, I beg, tell your daughters and granddaughters about it because without context the achievements of current and future generations can't be properly appreciated' Lynsey Hooper, broadcaster
'Without a doubt one of the most important books about women's football to date... incredibly fun and educational' The WoSo Show
