Beth Mead has said “the sky’s the limit” following the decision of Women’s Super League and Championship clubs to vote to form an independent organisation to run the women’s professional game.

“We want the game to move to a new level, we want to keep pushing it forward,” she said. “Although the FA have done an amazing job over so many years, it was time to let go of those stabilisers and let somebody else take over. Hopefully in the long run that can help us push the game and the leagues to the next level. The sky’s the limit and we have to keep pushing it there.”
