Behind the scenes at the ECA Women’s Football Summit: shaping the future of women’s club football in Europe


This week, we joined the European Club Association (ECA) at the inaugural ECA Women’s Football Summit.

A historic event that marks a milestone for women’s club football. Bringing together experts and stakeholders from across the football community to shape the future of the game.

The summit reviewed the achievements of ECA’s ‘Be A Changemaker’ strategy and featured sessions on the challenges faced by women’s football clubs and the importance of increased investment and governance.

As a long-time partner of ECA, WePlay helped launch their ‘Women’s Football Strategy’ in 2021 and have since supported their mission by creating content and executing a social media strategy in preparation for and during this historic event.

From representation, reforms and groundbreaking research to capturing and producing content on set, here’s a summary of the key highlights and discussions from the summit, along with an outline of our active involvement throughout.
