Lawyer and footballer Moya Dodd thinks a funding rule in the US should be “put to work in the Australian legal landscape”.
Lawyer and former Matildas vice captain Moya Dodd says the legal industry could benefit from a measure that helped create one of the superpowers in women’s soccer, the United States.
Ms Dodd would “like to see something like Title IX put to work in the Australian legal landscape – if you are going to take out money, you will not discriminate; governments have huge levers on that”. However, she went part-time in 2013 when she became the first Australian woman to be appointed to the FIFA executive committee. She is now on the executive committee of the Asian Football Confederation and a director of Football Federation Australia. She served on the successful bid committee to host the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
