Making sense of World Sevens Football with Tobin Heath
Manage episode 485415637 series 2715882
It has been billed as women's football 'reimagined' but with the inaugural edition behind us, what really is World Sevens Football (W7F) offering to the sport's global ecosystem?
This week on Full Time, hosts Tamerra Griffin and Meg Linehan are joined by USWNT legend Tobin Heath to discuss her role as the chair of player advisory council in developing the innovative seven-a-side tournament. Why was W7F such a breath of fresh air for players, and how can W7F disrupt the status quo?
Then The Athletic's Charlotte Harpur, joins the podcast to give her perspective from covering the W7F on the media side and the concerns regarding its hand-picked competing teams. Plus, Charlotte gives her inside view on Tuesday's sudden news that Mary Earps has retired from international soccer.
