Women in charge o top New Zealand sports teams? Not likely-3

"I am really supportive and want to encourage more female coaches in women's cricket. At the moment in cricket I am a minority and I certainly acknowledge that." Tiffen said there was never a question of where her career would go post-White Ferns as she has a teaching backgroun and always wanted to have a crack at coaching. "I was keen to get back involved and coaching was a way of getting involved and giving back to a sport that has certainly given me a lot."

New Zealand Rugby's head of women's rugby, Cate Sexton, says one key reason why females don't hold coaching roles in rugby was because of other work c...

The Premier League side say they are "disappointed but not surprised" by the decision and described it as "prejudicial" Manchester City  have been banned from competing in the  Champions League  for two years. UEFA handed down the punishment, which includes a €30 million fine (£25m/$33m), to the Premier League giants for breaching Financial Fair Play rules. Following an investigation, the Adjudicatory Chamber of UEFA's Club Financial Control Body (CFCB) found City guilty of "overstating its sponsorship revenue" between 2012 and 2016. The investigation started after a series of allegations published by German magazine  Der Spiegel  in November 2018, which drew on documents purportedly obtained by whistleblowers Football Leaks. UEFA's  statement  read: "The Adjudicatory Chamber, having considered all the evidence, has found that Manchester City Football Club committed serious breaches of the UEFA Club Licensing and Financial Fai...
