How has the football climate changed globally – the sport, the industry, the culture, the fashion – for women and marginalised communities since SEASON zine started in 2016? Why? What’s coming next? Who’s innovating? What do you love and hate? Perception vs reality - is everything what it seems? What has progressed and regressed? What are we most excited and repulsed by? These are the questions we pondered bringing this issue to life.

Our cover star Shanice van de Sanden, the flying Dutch winger who returns to Liverpool F.C. Women as a serial winner with incredible style, epitomises the shifts happening around us unapologetically. Photographed by Luke & Nik, she speaks to Jenny Simmons about how she keeps reinventing herself and the SEASON zine team went up North to explore the city with her.

Ten print issues of SEASON zine feels like a real milestone in our digital age and we’re so blessed to make it this far. It’s been wonderful collaborating with creatives around the world and we really appreciate your support. Please leave a review to let us know what you think.

**Rising production and printing costs mean that the issue price has increased for our biggest and best issue yet.
