Clubs across the Women’s Super League are breaking their season ticket sales records following England’s fourth-placed finish at the World Cup this summer.

A peak audience of 11.7 million made the Lionesses’ semi-final defeat to the USA the most-viewed TV event of the year so far in the UK, and during the tournament Phil Neville’s side broke the record for the most-watched UK women’s football match of all time four times via their games against Scotland, Cameroon, Norway and the US.

The ripple effect has ensured that even clubs without representation in the national side have enjoyed increased interest. Last season’s FA Cup finalists West Ham, who have the cheapest season tickets in the WSL, have sold over 700 season tickets, which is more than double their sales figures from last year.

Manchester City, who contributed eight players to the England squad, have recorded a 28 per cent increase across both general admission and hospitality season ticket sales, and the total so far - 685 seasoncards - has broken their previous record of 601 from the 2016 season, prior to the move to a winter league. City have also had to revamp their hospitality section following a 35 per cent increase in demand following the World Cup.
