Women's Football Quiz: what it is
Women's football has grown so quickly that its early history is easy to forget. The pioneers of 1991 and 1995, the squads that reached a first knockout round, the goalkeepers behind famous back lines: they all belong in a proper quiz. Footbillion collects them in one place and gives every correct answer a value.
The prompts come from the 1991 to 2019 tournaments in the Fjelstul World Cup Database. You might be asked for a player in a particular squad, any scorer for a nation across all tournaments, a goalkeeper selected by a country, a player who went to three or more World Cups, a coach or a host city.
Footbillion is a free daily football quiz where every correct name has a price. This page is Footbillion Unlimited filtered to one topic: the Women's football set currently holds 273 prompts in the Footbillion bank, each with its full list of valid answers. Play as many rounds as you like; your daily Footbillion streak is not affected.
How the women's football quiz works
Pick the Women's topic and press play. You get seven prompts, three tries each and a 45-second clock. Suggestions only show women players for these prompts, so you will not be distracted by men with the same surname. The first valid answer locks in a value between £10m and £150m.
Award prompts in the general bank mix men's and women's winners, and several Footbillion daily sets each week include one from this topic.
Tips for rare answers
- Early tournaments are rich. Squads from 1991, 1995 and 1999 contain many players with only a handful of World Cup matches.
- Defenders and keepers. Forwards collect goals and fame; the people behind them are where the value is.
- Smaller nations. Sides that qualified once or twice have whole squads of £100m+ answers.
Celebrating the whole squad
Fame in the women's game has long been concentrated on a few stars. Rarity scoring gives equal weight to everyone who made a squad, which is a small way of recognising the players who built the game. If you enjoy this mode, try the general World Cup quiz next.
How Footbillion prices each answer
Footbillion gives every valid name a fame score from open match data, then ranks the names inside each prompt. The best-known answer is worth £10m, the least-known £150m, and everything else sits in £5m steps between them. Seven perfect deep cuts add up to £1.05bn, which is where the Footbillion name comes from. The full method is on the credits page.
