quote:
I was young in 91 when the WC started. The women won. Norway won, then the US won again. Were those 2 wins in basically a 10 year span because the world just wasn't preparing/ready for a WC on the women's side?
Germany came through and did pretty well after it was established that there would be a continuous women's world cup.
Japan now looks like they will be contenders after a few WCs.
So, did we just luck out having stellar athletes and catching the other countries that have not had years to prepare?
Let's be honest. It's largely about money, and how much your country is willing to spend on womens' sports.
Obviously it will get harder, but the competition will be pretty limited for a while (at least in comparison to the men).
