Rise & Fall Of National Women’s Football League | Britni De La Cretaz & Lyndsey D'Arcangelo | TMR

Authors Britni De La Cretaz and Lyndsey D'Arcangelo join Emma in discussing their book Hail Mary: The Rise and Fall of the National Women's Football League. The NWFL was a groundbreaking endeavor in women's professional football, comprising players from diverse backgrounds and facing numerous obstacles. These women, hailing from various ethnicities and social classes, defied stereotypes and persevered against sexism, injuries, and skepticism, often lacking proper training. The NWFL itself was a high-risk venture, akin to a Hail Mary pass in football—unlikely to succeed but taken because it represented a glimmer of hope. While the NWFL may not have ultimately triumphed, for a brief moment, as it soared towards its goal, it seemed like it had a chance at success.
