And, indeed, I see your point. For historical/older information, it is indeed difficult to write about women's sports because these topics were not widely covered on paper (newspapers, books) but for current teams, at least for factual information, there is a large quantity of information online.
Indeed, if one is interested in France's national soccer team, one can probably get considerably more information online than through conventional media (which, at least in France, covers female sports very little, except in special events such as the Olympics).
Things are different with e.g. writers, since discussion on them tends to come from academics and "literary-type" newspapers. There is no equivalent to having factual databases of team rosters.
