With the 2007 FIFA Women’s World Cup Finals in China about to kick off, Hampden Museum’s latest exhibition celebrates Women’s Football.

Pioneers of the Scottish game, like Sheila Begbie, Elsie Cook and Scottish Sports Hall of Famer Rose Reilly, are placed beside current international stars, in particular Hibernian and Scotland duo Shelley Kerr and Kim Little and Arsenal UEFA Cup winner and Scotland’s top goal scorer Julie Fleeting.

The current stars of world football, like Marta, Birgit Prinz and Lotta Schelin are featured within the exhibition as are the legendary all-time stars of the game – as picked by Scottish National Coach Anna Signeul.

Scotland’s clubs are also honoured in an exhibition which brings together shirts, caps, film footage and images to capture the very essence of the Women’s Game. From Julie Fleeting’s UEFA Cup Final shirt to the quaich presented to Pauline Hamill for her 100th international appearance, this exhibition is a must see for football fans.
