4.9/5 (27926 ratings)

Description:What kind of women play football?Factory workers, bank clerks, policewomen, students and shop assistants, they come together on a Sunday united by a passion for the game all too woefully absent from the money-drenched circus of professional sport. Fired by a collective élan, an infectious joie de vivre, over the past dozen years the Doncaster Belles have been successful beyond the dreams of any other women's team.Peter Davies spends a season with the Belles - and finds a unique group of people with an abundance of talent and a vividly earthly sense of humour. They play hard in the pit villages and nightclubs of South Yorkshire, they play hard on tatty pitches in run-down suburbs and industrial estates - but they play for love too, and to a standard that could convert even the most blinkered chauvinist. It's a romantic story, and a jubilant one; on and off the pitch, Davies gives a moving, dramatic, sometimes hilarious insight into unseen lives made special by the magic of the game . At a time when more and more women are both watching and playing football, this club has been a trailblazer; in this rich, diverting and passionate book, Davies makes it plain why you too, once you've met them, will lose your heart to the Belles.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
