I am currently doing a degree majoring in Sport Management. I just stumbled upon this article and am a little frustrated by your bus drivers ignorance. The women's 20-20 cricket team played at the SAME place as the men and actually won the competition. Also, the Australian women's soccer team has been doing very well and W-League (the professional women's soccer competition) is televised on SBS during the season. Also, women DO play AFL (actually, it is Australian Rules-AFL is the professional competition) and it is actually becoming fairly popular. If you are able to get along to an AFL game while in Australia (Which I strongly recommend), there are kids running around at half time playing Auskick and many are young girls. Women's netball is actually becoming incredibly popular in Australia as well with most games broadcast live throughout the country. I was actually planning on going to the IWG conference however I am only a student so I didn't quite get the money to go but I am looking forward to your views on the event!
