The Football Supporters’ Federation and Kick It Out are currently running a survey aimed at match-going female fans, to help us understand more about why they love football, what it’s like to attend matches in a predominantly male environment and whether there are any ways in which more women could be encouraged into stadiums.
Whilst there is undoubtedly an increase in the number of women going to watch men’s football (as borne out by recent surveys of Premier League and Football League fans), there remains very little research available on their actual experiences of attending the match or being a football fan in general.
If you are in this category and want to pave the way for more female fans of football, please spare a bit of time to take part in this survey. Click here to access.
The survey is available here and will be open until January 2015. The information gathered through the survey will be pulled together in a report (which we will use to inform our work and make some practical recommendations going forward).
