In the United States, however, organized women’s soccer did not take root until the late 1970’s, and even this was partly an outgrowth of the Title IX legislation of 1972 mandating gender equity in education.
The first national women’s league did not launch until 1995, and it was not until 2001 that the first professional women’s league made its debut.
But when women’s soccer did finally take off in the US, it was with a vengeance, fueled by enormous participation at the youth and amateur levels, rapidly growing interest by mainstream sport fans and the media, and the growing acceptance of women’s sports in general.

From then on, until the introduction of a single-track women's league in 1998, every final of the German championship was run by teams of women and each woman referee was granted this honour once.
Representatives of the DFB Referees' Committee and Inspectors' Committee are always present to coach the women referees on the field but also to gain an impression of their performance with a view to possibly recruiting them to the ranks of the DFB women's referees' list at a later stage.

Considering women have been playing the game as long as men - Chinese frescoes from the Donghan Dynasty (AD 25-220) show women playing soccer – it seems more than a little unfair that the development of the women’s game has suffered in contrast to the explosion in popularity of the men’s.
