Following the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the English Football Association made spending cuts in a number of different areas. The area that took the biggest hit was facilities, with funding being cut by 17 million British pounds. Women's football was one of the few areas that actually saw its funding increase, with a slight boost of two million British pounds. This is consistent with the growth of women's football in England; as of 2020 there was twice the amount of women and girl's football teams than there had been three years earlier.
