After the 1914–15 season, the Football League ceased its schedule, and amateur competitions were tough to organise with so many men in the war, so women stepped in. Munitions workers, or'munitionettes,' organised football teams and competed against other plants. Munitionette football had a large fan base, and many matches were held on the grounds of professional teams. When the conflict ended, the female players were forced to hang up their boots and return to the domestic life they had been leading before to the war. However, the sport continued to thrive until 1921, when women were barred from playing on Football League fields.
