Lionesses legend Jill Scott believes the growing investment in women's football is helping to "change the lives" of young girls up and down the country.
Following the success of last summer's Euros, there has been a considerable increase in dedicated funding for grassroots and girls’ football, with a number of high profile sports stars raising the awareness of the need for greater investment.
Scott, who was part of the Lionesses side that made history by winning England's first major trophy since 1966, is one of those leading the calls for sustained change in the women's game. “I think the investment is just such a massive part," she told Mirror Football.
