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! Grab your teammates, rally your friends, and get ready for a night that’s all about competition, community, and women’s sport.

from making your wnbl debut at 14-years-old to becoming a pro baller with shyla heal
Shyla Heal debuted in the WNBL at just 14 years old. In the decade since her debut, she’s gone on to play for five clubs in the Australian Women’s Basketball League, including the championship-winning Townsville Fire in 2023. But one of the biggest moments of Shyla’s career came when she was drafted by the Chicago Sky in the 2021 WNBA Draft. Shyla played just four games before being traded and waived from the roster in the most brutal of ways. But now she’s using it as motivation to one day return to the World’s Best Women’s Basketball league. Now back in Australia, Heal is awaiting her return to basketball as she recovers from a knee injury, ready to take to the court this season with the Geelong Venom.
