More oral history than a typical podcast episode. Mankamyer was a real estate broker and youth soccer volunteer in Colorado who rose through the ranks of U.S. Soccer governance in the 1980s and was a key actor in promoting girls' youth soccer, the creation of a women's national team, and the addition of women's soccer as an Olympic sport in Atlanta in 1996. She also worked with and against Werner Fricker, and helped Alan Rothenberg get elected as president.Co-producer credit: William Gordon of American Soccer Corps for help with research and historical background.----Scuffed is an ad-free podcast.

Episode 21: U20-palooza! An encyclopedic look at the player pool as U20 World Cup qualifying looms: Joey Anthone (aka @USAProspects) joined the pod to comb through the U-20 player pool and we didn’t stop. Who will be available for November qualifying? We projected that. What are the biggest challenges for Tab Ramos? We explained them. What are the areas of strength in the pool? We pointed them out. Who will be the 6? Who will be the 9? Who will be the centerbacks? Check, check, check. And then we each gave a 20-man roster and answered several listener questions. Carve out time over multiple days because you won’t be able to handle this in one sitting. by Scuffed | U.S. soccer, World Cup, Yanks Abroad, futbol in America
