@battledinosaur thought of you and wondering what else you might know about this approach? Curious for our mental wellbeing program, Game Changers, at Fremantle City FC

[Kris Marano @Kmarano]

How brilliant is @TheMatildas Tony Gustavsson's encouraging approach to call players who come off "Game Changers." A model football coaches, especially at a grassroots level could model. Great leadership in creating confidence and connection https://t.co/nl2ZVgVXzh

@battledinosaur do you know more about this approach? Just heard through the game commentary. Would love to know more for our mental wellbeing program at Fremantle City FC

[Kris Marano @Kmarano]

@battledinosaur So thrilled as a Canada, who started playing when I was 5. Wonder if Canada and Aus will go for gold?

Love this story from @_BrittanyCarter. The type of reporting we need more of; with important messages for social change, to enhance the wellbeing of women and girls.

Following more female athletes can help young girls have a more positive social media experience 📱

Be part of the change you want to see -- invest in women. Invest in women sports. Show up. Stand up. Speak up.

Love this reflection from @battledinosaur. I know when our girls go out on the field, we often say to each other, "I'm so nervous." This season at Fremantle City FC we're trying to build pre-game confidence by doing things like writing down a compliment about another player.

[Samantha Lewis @battledinosaur]

whether at grassroots or #WLeague level, a grand final will always be a different type of game. the nerves can cripple you or you can use them to inspire you to greatness.

so how did three of the league’s best ever players harness theirs to make history?

inbox: the #WLeague grand final on @abcsport will have an all-woman commentary team! massive congratulations to @gracegill9 who will be calling her first grand final alongside Steph Brantz 🤩🗣️⚽️🎙️

[Kris Marano @Kmarano]

I would add, "give them paid grief/mental health days."

[Arlene Dickinson @ArleneDickinson]

Pay people a good living wage.
Give them paid sick days.
Be respectful.
Empathize with their situations.
Be flexible.
Give time to spend with families.

Lead.

[Kris Marano @Kmarano]

Incredible news. I'm most excited about what this means for young aspiring footballers in Perth and WA. This will be a huge moment, so they can see, who they can be.

A new power has risen in Australian politics — and it's not coming quietly https://t.co/v84ZUKqSxy

[Annabel Crabb @annabelcrabb]

Speaking of the "rubbish and crap" that women in politics put up with... this is a shocking example of what even your own colleagues can do. @KateEllis22 on @australianstory tonight

Marketing and more peer-to-peer role modeling within club models to increase interest in watching/attending games.

[Samantha Lewis @battledinosaur]

this past weekend, @AdelaideUnited recorded the highest crowd for a stand-alone regular season game.

how? by marketing the #WLeague just like they do the men's game.

history is what happens when you promote women's sport properly.
