About this listen

 They stripped off to raise funds to compete. Can you believe this was the only way Women's Football in Australia - our beloved Matilda's - could garner the financial support and promotional appeal to propel them into the 2000 Sydney Olympics? The extraordinary thing about the Matilda's decision to strip down - de rigeur at the time for fundraising ( think Calendar Girls in the UK) - was that is was sanctioned by women's football's governing body at the time. Come now and meet Maria Berry AM (Hall of Fame inductee to Football Victoria) for her work is a pioneering sports administrator in Women's Football. Maria was part of that decision making process and joins us to tell the tale, amongst others, in this straight from the kit room exclusive.
