Achieving gender equality in women's sport through collective bargaining agreement

Exploring the landmark pay deal achieved by the Matilda's and Socarus in 2019, this chapter discusses the concept of collective bargaining agreements in women's sport and emphasizes the positive implications of funding women's teams. It also highlights ongoing contract negotiations for better pay conditions, using the Wallarus and netball Australia as examples, and delves into the structural changes in the new Matilda's contract aimed at addressing payment inequality and incentivizing national selection.
