Lewes Women call for equal FA Cup prize money to end ‘shocking’ disparity

Players from the Women’s Championship club Lewes have written an open letter calling for equal FA Cup prize money before their quarter-final against Manchester United.

The letter highlights the huge gap in prize money between the men’s and women’s competitions. Lewes have received £45,000 for winning three ties to get this far, whereas the men’s teams who entered at the third round have been paid £450,000.
