With the triumph of England's Lionesses at Euro 2022, the women's game has been in the spotlight like never before, enjoying unprecedented media attention.

England's Lionesses are European champions and famous the world over, but other women footballers all across England are fighting a different battle. From training pitches to home stadia, from sponsorship to electricity bills, they want to be treated as footballers, not second-class citizens. This is the story of the season after the summer before.

While England's Lionesses headed to France for the 2019 Women's World Cup as superstars in search of silverware, FA upheavals back home were moving the goalposts for the newly all-pro elite teams, for part-timers and amateurs alike. Is women's football in England actually growing from top to bottom - or is it just another slick PR campaign?

Millions watched during the 2015 Women's World Cup as England's Lionesses captured the bronze medal as well as the hearts of a nation. Carrie Dunn follows some of the most famous - and not so famous - female footballers in the country over the course of the year after the amazing campaign in Canada, and looks ahead to the game's future.

Women's football is the fastest growing participation sport in both the UK and across the world, and the 2015 Women's World Cup was the biggest tournament the sport had ever seen.
