What an amazing month of football filled with emotions, culture and suspense we have been privileged to witness and enjoy. A truly amazing football show put up by highly talented players from different continents and nationalities demonstrating the power of the beautiful game. The art, grace, technique, skills, tactics and theatrics captivated a whole nation and billions more from around the world. For once high level football with all its components was played regularly on our soil and time zone for a whole month. A true gift and blessing for the young girls and boys with dreams and aspirations for the game accustomed to watching these types of events live on tv or via replays given the time zone challenges. This time they were part of the real thing. They could see, feel and touch their heroes. Let’s hope as a nation we seize upon this gift and change the game for good by building a true football culture underpinned by real football values for generations to come. 

As a legacy we have to go beyond words and politics. We want to see more investment at grassroots from the governing body, state and federal governments towards football specific training, game facilities and coaching education. Incentives for female players, refugees and low income families to facilitate their participation in order to consolidate on what was an amazing event.
Congratulations to Spain!
