00:17:38,879 --> 00:17:41,014 always been seen as a boys' sport. 382 00:17:41,017 --> 00:17:44,786 Um, even though the women's game was... 383 00:17:44,791 --> 00:17:47,326 Was much, much, much bigger than the men's game. 384 00:17:47,327 --> 00:17:49,099 So I think it's important to have some context 385 00:17:49,100 --> 00:17:50,168 around women's football. 386 00:17:50,169 --> 00:17:52,604 Because, you know, we've seen it of late. 387 00:17:52,605 --> 00:17:54,544 There's been this huge increase in interest. 388 00:17:54,545 --> 00:17:56,079 England won the Euros. 389 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,385 You know, the women's game in the U.S. is really big. 390 00:17:58,386 --> 00:17:59,856 But for a long time, women's football 391 00:17:59,857 --> 00:18:01,177 has been in the wilderness. 392 00:18:01,178 --> 00:18:04,365 Right back at its very origins in the 1880s, 393 00:18:04,366 --> 00:18:08,269 there were big teams that drew massive crowds across the UK 394 00:18:08,275 --> 00:18:11,076 and even internationally. 395 00:18:11,077 --> 00:18:12,816 Women's football got a real shot in the arm 396 00:18:12,817 --> 00:18:14,185 during the First World War. 397 00:18:14,186 --> 00:18:16,090 With all of the men away fighting in the trenches 398 00:18:16,091 --> 00:18:18,595 on the Western Front, women's football was really 399 00:18:18,596 --> 00:18:19,865 kind of the only game in town. 400 00:18:19,866 --> 00:18:21,301 And even when the men returned home, 401 00:18:21,302 --> 00:18:22,938 the women's game still remained enormously popular. 402 00:18:22,939 --> 00:18:26,274 On December 26, 1920, 53,000 people turned out 403 00:18:26,279 --> 00:18:27,947 to watch a women's game. 404 00:18:27,950 --> 00:18:30,851 That is a crowd we can only dream of at Wrexham 405 00:18:30,855 --> 00:18:33,057 these days, um, and speaks 406 00:18:33,060 --> 00:18:35,328 to the enormous popularity of it. 407 00:18:35,329 --> 00:18:36,901 In fact, it was so popular that it was deemed 408 00:18:36,902 --> 00:18:38,370 to be a threat to the men's game, 409 00:18:38,371 --> 00:18:41,574 and the FA took the step in the following year, 1921, 410 00:18:41,575 --> 00:18:43,315 to ban all women from playing football, 411 00:18:43,316 --> 00:18:46,584 saying, "The game of football is unsuitable for females 412 00:18:46,589 --> 00:18:48,790 and ought not to be encouraged." 413 00:18:48,793 --> 00:18:51,062 And they in fact banned women's football 414 00:18:51,066 --> 00:18:52,399 until the 1970s. 415 00:18:52,401 --> 00:18:55,036 So women's football was banned until 1971, 416 00:18:55,037 --> 00:18:56,810 but a female football committee at the FA 417 00:18:56,811 --> 00:18:59,112 was not set up until 1993. 418 00:18:59,116 --> 00:19:01,985 And thank goodness it was, because without that, 419 00:19:01,986 --> 00:19:04,359 you wouldn't be seeing all the many manifold triumphs 420 00:19:04,360 --> 00:19:05,761 of women's football today. 421 00:19:17,557 --> 00:19:21,161 Of course we want to be a part of that, 422 00:19:21,162 --> 00:19:24,799 and it's definitely a long road ahead, 423 00:19:24,804 --> 00:19:26,505 but it's worth it. 424 00:19:26,506 --> 00:19:28,878 Rob and Ryan, of course, they're supporting us. 425 00:19:28,879 --> 00:19:30,713 And Blake, she obviously, 426 00:19:30,716 --> 00:19:32,616 um, sponsors our team as well. 427 00:19:32,617 --> 00:19:34,056 When I first started Betty Buzz, 428 00:19:34,057 --> 00:19:35,792 I set out to create the best-tasting 429 00:19:35,793 --> 00:19:37,113 sparkling drink out there. 430 00:19:39,256 --> 00:19:42,674 It's pretty special that they are 431 00:19:42,675 --> 00:19:44,309 supporting us in that way. 432 00:19:44,312 --> 00:19:47,380 And you know, that makes us, as a team and as a section, 433 00:19:47,384 --> 00:19:50,321 feel... feel very, very much part of the club. 434 00:19:53,832 --> 00:19:56,400 Gemma is the beating heart of the entire... 435 00:19:56,404 --> 00:19:57,771 The entire club. 436 00:19:57,774 --> 00:19:59,808 I'd say Gemma's heart extends 437 00:19:59,811 --> 00:20:02,313 into the Wrexham AFC men's club too. 438 00:20:02,317 --> 00:20:04,752 She's putting her last drop of blood into this... 439 00:20:04,755 --> 00:20:06,622 This... this team, and... 440 00:20:06,626 --> 00:20:08,194 And building it and growing it. 441 00:20:08,196 --> 00:20:09,596 It's gonna be incredible. 442 00:20:09,599 --> 00:20:11,633 I'm really, really excited about it. 443 00:20:13,774 --> 00:20:15,776 I oversee the entire women's 444 00:20:15,779 --> 00:20:17,346 and girls section at the club. 445 00:20:17,349 --> 00:20:21,352 So that's all the way from our little under-eights 446 00:20:21,357 --> 00:20:23,925 all the way up to our senior women's team, 447 00:20:23,929 --> 00:20:26,564 and organizing everything in between, basically. 448 00:20:28,739 --> 00:20:30,340 I'm born and bred Wrexham. 449 00:20:30,343 --> 00:20:32,209 Always had a football by my feet. 450 00:20:32,210 --> 00:20:34,717 Um, I've never really been a girly-girl, if I'm honest. 451 00:20:34,718 --> 00:20:37,219 Um, yeah, I grew up with, 452 00:20:37,220 --> 00:20:38,793 you know, going on the football field 453 00:20:38,794 --> 00:20:41,195 with the kids that lived locally. 454 00:20:41,196 --> 00:20:42,968 There might have been me and one other girl, 455 00:20:42,969 --> 00:20:44,937 and then the rest of them were all boys. 456 00:20:44,941 --> 00:20:47,709 And that's... that... Yeah, that was me. 457 00:20:47,713 --> 00:20:49,413 I loved it. 458 00:20:49,414 --> 00:20:52,021 My husband's Gareth Owen, one of the best midfielders 459 00:20:52,022 --> 00:20:53,990 we've had at the club. 460 00:20:53,993 --> 00:20:57,763 His main sort of time period was the '90s. 461 00:20:57,768 --> 00:20:59,235 I grew up watching him, yeah, 462 00:20:59,238 --> 00:21:02,273 which was quite strange, you know, going back to 463 00:21:02,277 --> 00:21:04,612 when you used to stand at the side of the pitch 464 00:21:04,616 --> 00:21:06,150 and high-fiving players. 465 00:21:06,151 --> 00:21:07,620 Yeah, that was... He was one of them, 466 00:21:07,621 --> 00:21:09,689 which is a little bit weird, but... 467 00:21:09,692 --> 00:21:12,928 he is now the under-19's manager 468 00:21:12,933 --> 00:21:15,368 with our women's side as well. 469 00:21:15,372 --> 00:21:17,473 I try and learn as much as I can off him, 470 00:21:17,476 --> 00:21:19,210 and... yeah, he's... he's great. 471 00:21:19,213 --> 00:21:21,447 He's... he's playing a big part, at the moment, 472 00:21:21,451 --> 00:21:23,786 in the growth of our women's side as well. 473 00:21:23,789 --> 00:21:26,090 We will not be putting you up front again. 474 00:21:26,094 --> 00:21:28,362 No, Gem, listen!
