Traditionally, men’s and women’s soccer has been treated as very different beasts.
Girls and boys have tended to be separated from a relatively early age, often due to concerns that girls are unable to compete with more physically developed boys.

From the start of the 2015-16 season, the FA decided to raise the age limit at which girls and boys can play in the same teams from 16 to 18. The same limit remains in place today.
