Women Football's Silent Revolution: How Bespoke Gear and Systemic Equity Are Fighting the ACL Crisis in Women's Football
Description
Women Football's Silent Revolution: How Bespoke Gear and Systemic Equity Are Fighting the ACL Crisis in Their Game.
We provide an extensive overview of the historical and contemporary issues surrounding female athletes' equipment and injury risk, particularly in soccer. We discuss how traditionally male-centric equipment, such as cleats and general kits, were simply "shrunk and pinked" for women, leading to discomfort, poor performance, and an increased risk of serious injuries like ACL tears. There's several sources that emphasize the biomechanical differences in female anatomy, such as foot morphology and lower limb alignment, which necessitate gender-specific gear to enhance safety and performance. Furthermore, the episode analyze how systemic gender inequities in professional sports—including inadequate facilities, lower pay, poor playing surfaces like artificial turf, and a lack of customized strength training or medical support—compound the injury crisis and often prioritize profit over player welfare.
