Fantastic to be asked to be back on the radio discussing the impact last night could have in the future of women’s sport.
Football came home on Sunday – but what next for women in sport? Listen to DMU’s Head of Sport @FionaMDick reflecting on @BBCLeicester about the incredible @lionesses victory at Wembley and looking to the future 🎉⚽️ bbc.in/3Qc39dG ⚽️🎉

As the excitement builds for the Euro’s I’ve been given my chance to talk about it and the growth of the women’s game.
It’s coming home? 👀

It’s been a true pleasure to work with such a committed team of @DMUsports and @UOL_Sport during the last 8 days. The pride and sportsmanship @dmuleicester students have demonstrated has been awesome.
That's a wrap on #Varsity2022 🙌
Well done to everyone from #TeamDMU and @uniofleicester 👏

A real pleasure hosting this panel discussion - I could've asked far more questions! Including, will there be an open top bus tour when @LCFC_Women win the league (when Covid restrictions allow!)?
🗨I think there is still that issue of the old traditionalist views that football is just a men’s sport and it’s really not🗨
@LCFC_Women's @holly_morgan10 @RemiAllen10 & @libbysmith_9 talk women's football & how the game is changing for the better⚽⬇

Adam will be sorely missed by so many. A great guy, taken far too soon. Thoughts with his family, friends, team mates and colleagues.
Thoroughly looking forward to this discussion. I'm sure it will raise important issues we all need to hear.

We're really keen to have new people join the committee, little to no experience needed only a willing attitude. Get in touch if you're interested.

Today we remember all whose lives have been brutally cut short during the Holocaust, and in genocides around the world. Join us and #LightTheDarkness by lighting a candle in memory of all victims #HMD2021
I wonder if @matthewcpinsent can confirm or deny? And/Or this causes great hilarity in the Pinsent household and rowing world?! – at Leicester, England
