The Flying Bats complete the humiliation of women by winning the grand final
The Flying Bats football team has won the North West Sydney Women’s Premier League grand final 5-4.
They finished the competition undefeated.
Over the season they scored 76 goals with only 8 scored against them.
David, who was at the grand final game on the weekend, spoke to Ben Fordham on 2GB and said that before the game, security guards were checking bags for camera equipment. He surmised that the reason they were doing this was because they didn’t want anyone capturing video evidence of the males thrashing the women. He also claimed that there were very loud boos when the final whistle blew.
It is incredible that the North West Sydney Premier League deemed it appropriate and fair for this male dominated team to continually humiliate the female players week in and week out despite their protests.
To their credit, 2 teams forfeited each game against the Bats.
There needs to be a lot of serious reflection by the association and clubs for next season.
They need to send a message loud and clear such misogyny and the erasure of women’s sex-based rights will not be tolerated.
