Browsing: Women’s Super League

The Women’s Super League, known as the Barclays Women’s Super League for sponsorship reasons, is the highest league of women’s football in England. Established in 2010, it is run by the Football Association and features twelve fully professional teams.

Last year, Manchester United Women raked in revenues totalling £7 million, surpassing the average earnings of men’s professional teams in League Two (the fourth tier of professional men’s football in England). This remarkable increase of nearly £2 million from the previous year can be attributed to larger attendances and enhanced income from sponsorship agreements.
