Today marks the beginning of a new era for women’s professional football in England with the completion of the agreement to transfer ownership of its top two tiers to a new independent company.
Women’s Professional Leagues Limited (WPLL) has taken over responsibility for the Barclays Women’s Super League and Barclays Women’s Championship from The Football Association (FA).
Each club participating in these leagues will act as a shareholder in the new company. The completion of the agreement spearheads a new era in the sport, dedicated to driving growth and maximising potential, placing players and fans at its core.
