Carrie Dunn
A new book by celebrated sports writer Carrie Dunn has been launched and it’s dedicated to Aberystwyth Town Women.
Ahead of last Sunday’s Genero Adran Premier Division match at home to Swansea City, the Seasiders’ stars marked the launch of media officer Carrie Dunn’s new book, ‘Woman Up: Pitches, Pay and Periods – The Progress and Potential of Women’s Football’.
Carrie’s most recent book, ‘Unsuitable for Females: The Rise of the Lionesses and Women’s Football in England’, was shortlisted for 2023 Football Book of the Year.
She has been handling all things press and publicity as a volunteer for Aberystwyth Town Women since summer 2022, and dedicated ‘Woman Up’ to the players – as well as including special shout-outs to Shauna Chambers, Kelly Thomas, Lucie Gwilt, Ffiona Evans and new skipper Amy Jenkins.
Carrie Dunn said: “Working with these women is a delight and although I’ve worked in women’s football for many years now, they’re always giving me new things to think about, some of which I’ve been able to write about in ‘Woman Up’.”
