Growing up I was the sports kid. I played hockey, netball, tennis, rugby – I even tried my hand a sailing for a while, but my first love was always football.
Growing up a football fan but not feeling comfortable on the sporting grounds is the burden of all women or POC fans because of the sport used to be.
Well thanks to Heineken, I had the great opportunity to watch the Champions League Semi Final last week. Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich, a fans dream.
Gone are the days I would pass up on a great game because I would be scared of the abuse that could potentially come with it. Through the evolving inclusion of players and fans, attitudes and mindsets are changing.
