ABSTRACT

This chapter is based on a desk-top survey of the club affiliation of players in the leading national women's soccer teams according to FIFAs list of ranking. In women's soccer it is mainly access to the national squad and possible participation in an international tournament that may lead to higher visibility for women's soccer players, thereby enhancing their chances of obtaining mobility to clubs abroad. The circular mobility in these movements between clubs abroad and national squads is one reason why fluxes in sports labor migration cannot be reduced to a one-directional movement from donor to host country. According to the coach of the American women's soccer national squad Tom Sermanni, this initiative will make it easier for him to gather the national squad and to ensure that all players are undergoing well-qualified training. Turning the material around to study fluxes of immigration, found that most women's soccer players who migrate head for clubs in the USA, Germany and Sweden.
