People need to know "the situation then" The Football Association (The F.A.) had Banned Female Football from December 1921 to December 1971. This happened in July/August 1971 .... The Women's Football Association (W.F.A.1969 to1993) governed Female Football ... it was The W.F.A. who banned those women/girls and Harry Batt for life!. Here is the reason why ... Harry wanted an official Female England Team to go to the competition, at that time the W.F.A. did not have one (although they could have easily organized one). Harry recognized the potential of global Female Football, yet The W.F.A. said "NO and If you all go, we will Ban You". Harry made a choice ... take an Unofficial England Representative Team, for the Good of International Female Football or don't go and keep English Female Footballers Suppressed ... Harry Batt (What a progressive pioneer) Made The Right Choice !!! and SHAME on the W.F.A.
