Representation means having support when you need it, advice from people who are on your side and a collective voice in the decisions that shape your career.
FIFPRO’s new Global Employment report shows just how much that matters for women’s footballers.

We've created a set of resources to complement the education programmes & wellbeing support services provided by Player Associations for members who continue to suffer too much online abuse. The bitesize tips and 'how to' explainers can be viewed here: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL…

⚽ The growth of women's football must be matched by stronger labour protections.
FIFPRO's new report highlights why collective bargaining and player representation are essential to building sustainable careers. 📢
FIFPRO’s Global Employment Report found that almost half of the women's players surveyed have considered leaving football early.
The three most-cited reasons:
💰 Financial reasons – 59%
🧠 Psychological stress – 46%
⚖️ Better work-life balance – 39%
Players need the conditions and security to build sustainable careers.
We're delighted to partner with B5 consultancy to produce a set of social media education resources with advice for players on adjusting social media settings and habits to protect themselves and reduce exposure to online abuse. Find out more: ppf.org.uk/news/ppf-launches…

“One of the best things I did was reach out for support.”
Exeter City forward Anthony Scully spoke with our Player Wellbeing Executive, Phil McQuaid, to share his experience and encourage players who may be struggling to reach out to the PFA for support.
Having taken that step himself at a difficult point with injuries in his career, Anthony knows first-hand how important it can be to ask for help. ❤️

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay 💙
Looking after your wellbeing doesn't mean something has gone wrong. It's part of being a professional, on and off the pitch.
That's the message from @LiviFCOfficial's Cristian Montano, and why player care is at the heart of what we do.
Congratulations to all the winners of the #PCAAwards - what a great way to celebrate so many player achievements.
One of our favourite events of the year, the 2026 #PCAawards was the perfect way to round off a spectacular season 🙌
Take a look at some of the best moments from the evening 📹
