Inside Baroness Sue Campbell’s storied career

Joining Rach in the studio today is one of the most influential figures in British sport—Baroness Sue Campbell! The driving force behind the transformation of women’s football in England, Sue’s influence on the game has been instrumental, and her career is nothing short of extraordinary.

Sue reminisces about Euro 2022—and the role she played in England’s journey to success—reveals the three key priorities she set upon joining the FA, where she later became the director of women’s football, and shares the powerful words from her father that kept her going during her toughest moments.

Plus, Sue discusses the handover of the WSL and Championship to the WPLL, and we get a glimpse into her brand-new book, The Game Changer, which is out today! Come and join us.
