Collection: The Match

While World War I rages across Europe, an unlikely team of heroines emerge from a munitions factory in Preston, England.

"The Match" tells the inspiring story of the Dick, Kerr Ladies who defy the expectations of their era to become football sensations. Determined to raise money to support wounded soldiers, these extraordinary women take to the pitch, kicking not just footballs, but also the boundaries of what is considered ‘suitable behaviour’ for women.

Led by the passionate Alice and the determined Florrie, they face challenges both on and off the field – from disapproving families to rival teams willing to play dirty.

But this is more than just a tale of football. It's a story of friendship, resilience, and the power of unity in the face of adversity.

Meticulously researched and beautifully written, "The Match" brings to life a little-known chapter of history that will inspire and captivate readers. It is a testament to the indomitable spirit of the women who dared to dream big and kick hard.
