As the new Women’s Super League season kicks off, #SkySports is celebrating the power and influence of female athletes, both on and off the pitch ⚽️   Our latest research reveals that 88% of people agree that seeing female athletes on TV inspires young women to participate in sport. To celebrate the return of the WSL, we brought together a player from every club for a star-studded shoot, blending football and fashion to showcase the players’ personalities and highlight how these athletes are breaking barriers, setting trends, and inspiring future generations.    Catch the first match this Sunday, as Arsenal take on Manchester City live on Sky Sports 📺 https://lnkd.in/exJyZCRb
