on the wwc note ... slightly crappy that a couple teams are using newly redone empire fields in Vancouver for training and the organizers have gone about erecting temporary tarped fencing so no one can watch

Closed training sessions are the norm for World Cups.

Which is why they're the perfect time to exchange bribes!

this world cup is a lil different. Youd think theyd want to be a little more open to the public to draw more interest in this tournament

Empire fields are 2 turf fields side by side

Australia and cameroon will be practicing at the same time :ohwell:

It all comes down to the manager, really. Exposure is obviously wanted given the relative obscurity of women's football but if the manager wants to close the doors it's within his/her rights.

They do usually host one or two open practices, though.

When you talk about exposure in women's football, only one thing comes to mind:
