In total, 83,262 female coaches are registered
with the 177 MAs that took part in the
survey. While the average number of female
coaches for associations ranked in the top 20
positions is 5,037, this figure is below 250 for
MAs ranked outside the top 20. The concentration
of female coaches in the most competitive
member associations explains the much lower
figure observed for median values than for averageperforming
associations. This finding suggests that
the development of training programmes for female
coaches in the lower-performing football associations
could be an effective way to promote women’s football.
