how lisa sthalekar became the first woman president of the world cricketers association
Lisa Sthalekar was the first woman to score 1000 runs and take 100 wickets in the history of One-Day International Cricket. But Lisa’s cricketing journey began in her teenage years when she became the first woman to ever join her local cricket club, and as they say, the rest is history. Lisa went on to captain the New South Wales Breakers and the Australian national team on many occasions. But her resume off the pitch is just as impressive: winning back-to-back Belinda Clark medals, becoming the first woman to be President of the World Cricketers Association, and most recently co-founding Around the Wickets: A women's cricket travel business encouraging fans to travel the world to support the Australian team.

the next: is there such thing as too much money in women's sport?
THE NEXT is a new monthly podcast from The Female Athlete Project. Each episode, futurist and former athlete Reanna Browne joins Chloe and Bez to explore what’s changing in women’s sport, before it hits the headlines. We shine a light on the pockets of the future already here - the signals of change that are quietly [or not-so-quietly] reshaping women's sport in the present. Not to predict what’s coming, but to notice what’s already in motion. This week we discuss five signals of change around how big money and big investment is entering women's sports. *** To celebrate the launch of MORE THAN A GAME GAME, the ultimate women’s sports trivia game making women athletes household names, we’re hitting the road for the final week of our pub trivia tour thanks to Red Bull!
