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.
