The year is 1967, a time when women's football was still fighting for recognition and equality in the sporting world. Mrs Pat Dunn stands tall in her tracksuit, exuding determination and passion for the beautiful game. Little did anyone know that this extraordinary woman would go on to become a true pioneer of women's football.
