Play On!

Episode 234 of the Women’s World Football Show features an exclusive interview with author Heidi Smith. 

Just when you think you know everything about women’s soccer, a book comes around to let us know that there is still so much more to learn! Join us as we take a deep dive into Heidi’s new book “Play On: From Adversity to Advantage through 140 Years of Women’s Soccer.”  (13”)

We’ll also share soundbites from Angel City FC and New Zealand international defender Ali Riley announcing her retirement from soccer. (55”)
