FAW Technical Director Dave Adams highlights the significant strides made in women's football as the Wales team gears up for Euro 2025. He emphasizes the recent investment shift towards equality between men's and women's teams, admitting past inequalities. Prior to 1993, there was no official women's team. The FAW's commitment to equal opportunity and investment aims to consistently qualify for major tournaments, reflecting a serious catch-up effort in addressing previous disparities in support for women athletes.
"It's very hard for me to comment on the history of it, but all I can say I suppose, is it probably wasn't fair or respectful to those athletes at that time."
"We're moving in that direction. We've definitely got a lot more equality. We're doing a lot of catch up in this space and I think we didn't invest proportionally on both sides."
