Six women talk about their involvement in football Gayle (sports reporter) Ac university, I had a boyltiend who supported the Liverpool football team and T've been & fan ever since, I was more interested in cricket, though, when T was growing up, I dreamed of being the first female cricket reporter. 1 achieved my ambition in @ way, although I report on football matches instead. I was one of the first women to do that. When T started working in broadcasting, there were hardly any ‘women covering football. really felt that I had to prove myself. D Janis (referee) | was in a football team when I was a teenager. A team had been put together for one match to raise money fora charity, but we had such a good. time that we carried on playing. There were no ‘women’s teams, though, so when I left school, 1 decided to become a referee — that way I could stay involved in the game. I even referee for my son's local team. He’s growing up thinking it's perfectly natural for women to be involved in football. I'm glad hecause [ have met a lot of ‘men who think that, because I'm female, I can’t possibly know much about the game, Sandy (works for a football association) 1've been interested in Football for as long as 1 can remember. My mum, who United supporter, started taking me to matches ‘when | was little and they became my team too. [ive in London now. but I try and see them whenever they play “away” games here. [often have to work at the weekends, though, so I don't get to gos often as Pd like. I'd have loved to have played football when I was a kid, but there ‘were no girls" teams in my area hack then. As for ‘my job, people often ask me if it’s hard working in such a male-dominated sport. But its not just a man's world any more and the Football ‘Association really encourages women to get involved. a Manchester Kate (Football player's agent) Tbecame a serious football fan when I was about 11 or 12, [used to tell my parents [ was going toa friend’s house, but really I'd sneak off to ‘watch a match. It was my cousin, Jo, who was @ couple of years older than me and a total football fanatic, who got me started, And now L represent football players for a living; it’s my job to make ssure that the contracts they have with their clubs are fair. IU’ true that it’s easier now for women t0 get involved in football, but very few agents are female. There aren't many other women doing my job. But the number of female fans has definitely increased and they usually know a lot more about the game than men expect them to. Brenda (football club manager) I got my job because of my business experience, and my appreciation of the game has developed because of the work. I've never played football and fortunately, it’s not one of the job requirements! I enjoy sports, but I was more at school, When I first started, I was amazed at the level of interest ~ especially from the media — just because I'm female, but times have changed. There are now lots of women involved in the business side of the game. into cenni Marilyn (supporter) Tm the only real football fan in our family. My sister has never shown any interest, nor has my dad, My mum has started listening to match results on the radio, though, because she knows how much I like to talk about it.I think anyone ‘who goes to a football match for the first time is surprised to see how many female supporters there are. When I travel to “away” matches by coach, the male supporters are often in the ‘minority. { don’t play myself, though. There ‘were no girls’ teams at the schools I went to ~ I ‘wanted to start one, but my schoolmates weren't that interested, So unfortunately, I never got the ‘opportunity to play then and I'm too old 10 start now,>p2 Exam Practice A\ Read the text below and decide which answer A, B,C or D best fits each space.

For questions 1-8, choose the answer A, B,C or D which you think fits best according to the text. (100 points) Dr Bob Sharp ~ To the Rescue Recently a member of the British government has expressed concern over what he called the “unacceptably high’ ‘number of casualties among mountain climbers, However, Dr Bob Sharp feels that these comments are “a storm in a teacup”. An experienced climber and volunteer with the Mountain Rescue Committee of Scotland for over 25 years, Dr ‘Sharp is also a professor at Strathclyde University who specialises in sports studies. Sharp proudly points out that in 5. Scotland, if you take into account the increased number of climbers, the accident rate over the last decade is probably falling, Sharp thinks that climbers today are generally better prepared. Sharp wams that relying too heavily on specialised ‘equipment can be problematie, particularly when the climber lacks basic mountaineering skills, like navigating with a compass and a map, What is essential for safe climbing, he continues, is proper planning ~ particularly knowing in 10 advance what you will do if something goes wrong. ‘According to a report Sharp published in 2001, 50% of those climbers needing assistance were not locals. One expert pointed out “When you drive for hundreds of kilometres to climb a mountain, you won't be put off easily. People around here know, for example, that weather can change from one moment to the next, But these guys figure they ean ‘outrun the storm forecasts, A local climber would know better” Further findings reveal that over half of all climbing 15 casualties are experienced climbers who sometimes take unnecessary risks. One of the biggest challenges facing any rescue team is getting to people before they become victims of “white death”. ‘Someone buried under the snow Following an avalanche cannot usually survive for long. Once the snow stops moving, it quickly becomes as hard as stone, making it very difficult 10 dig oneself out. But just over 90% of vietims survive if they can be reached within 15 minutes. Avalanche vietims are lucky if there is a dog in the rescue team. A well-trained 20 avalanche rescue dog can locate a vietim in about an eighth of the time it would take twenty rescue workers. Although most rescue workers are volunteers, they devote a lot of time and energy to training. Sharp's particular team includes 25 men and five women, Not all teams requite the same taining programmes. Sharp's team has exercises in navigation, search management, radio communication, first aid and casualty management, The rescue team has indoor training fortnight and an exercise on « hill every month. Training sessions may include other forces such 28 as the police and firemen to ensure that all the different services involved in rescue work are able 10 ¢0-operate. ‘Teamwork is one of the most important aspects of trai ing, This is not always easy as team members may differ in their assessment of an emergency situation, For example, a doctor may suggest flying an injured climber immediately to.a large hospital for emergency surgery. However, the pilot might feel that, in view of the weather it is best to land quickly at a location from which the victim can be transported by ambulance. At moments like this, the safety of team 30 members must be the overriding concern. With most emergency calls happening at night or at weekends, it takes more than a sense of duty to do mountain rescue work, But Sharp says that for him the extra hours are not an issue, Sharp's personal passion for rescue work remains undiminished, as is seen in the book “Mountain Rescue” that hie co-authored. He hopes the book will leave climbers “confident in the knowledge that if you're ever caught out in the mountains and need assistance, help will be 35. on hand from a group of willing volunteers who show resolve, professionalism, kindness and compassion.”From the first paragraph we learn that Sharp A has medical experience, B is an expert in the field of sports C has been climbing for 25 years D is proud of his work as a volunteer. . From the expression “a storm in a teacup” in line 2 we understand that Sharp AA feels there is cause for concern B believes that climbing accidents are on the tise. thinks that climbing risks have been exaggerated. D agrees that snowstorms are a major cause of accidents ‘What is Sharp’s attitude to specialised climbing equipment? A Ieis not always as useful as people imagine. B Iis the best way to ensure safe climbing. C Itis heavy to carry when climbing. D tis not as important as careful preparation. Sharp's report indicates that many accidents are eaused by A. unpredictable weather conditions, B exhaustion after a long drive to reach the site, C risks taken because of lack of experience. Why are avalanches such a challenge to the rescue squad? A Finding victims isa battle against ime B Rescue dogs need a lot of training € Victims are not able to move inthe snow D You nced a large rescue team to find the victim. ‘What do we learn about the training sessions? A Men receive more training than women, B They take place on a regular basis in a variety of locations. They are run by the police and fire department, D lll rescue teams have the same training, ‘What is the main priority on a dangerous rescue operation? A Getting the victim to the hospital B Assessing the victim’s condition quickly. € Making sure the team is not at risk D Avoiding bad weather conditions, ‘What do we learn about Sharp in the last paragraph? A He does rescue work out of a sense of duty, B He remains enthusiastic and deeply involved in rescue work. C He is unhappy about the demands rescue work makes on his free time, D He wants to share his expertise with mountain climbers, iedDee >B2 Exam Practice A Read the text below and decide which answer A, B, C or D best fits each space. 24) The Imagineer ‘Asan “Tmagineer”, I spend my time designing rides for theme parks allover the world.
