Women's sport did not become mainstream overnight. Long before the sold-out stadiums, prime-time broadcasts, major sponsorships, professional leagues, record audiences, and global stars, women were already competing, organising, winning, and fighting for the right to be taken seriously.

The New Queens of Sport: How Women Took Centre Stage tells the fact-based story of how women's sport moved from the margins of the sporting calendar into one of the most powerful cultural and commercial forces in modern athletics. From early restrictions and historic bans to Olympic breakthroughs, football's stadium revolution, the rise of the WNBA, the growth of women's cricket and rugby, the power of tennis champions, the visibility of college sport, and the commercial turn driven by sponsors, broadcasters, and fans, this book follows the athletes and institutions that changed the landscape.
