Ambassador
Megan Longworth
Football has been part of Megan Longworth’s life for as long as she can remember. A Blackburn Rovers season ticket holder since she was just 10 months old, Megan grew up attending matches with her entire family - mum, dad, brother, grandparents, cousins, and now her boyfriend. Supporting Rovers isn’t just a hobby; it’s part of who she is. Whether at Ewood Park or traveling to away games, Megan is blue and white through and through.
When Blackburn Rovers partnered with Her Game Too, Megan saw a chance to give back to the club and community that shaped her. Through this role, she’s passionate about ensuring the next generation of fans, particularly young girls, can enjoy the same experiences she has had - free from barriers or discrimination.
Beyond football, Megan plays cricket, enjoys hiking adventures, and empowers women through skincare.
Megan is supported in her role by fan advocates Eleanor and Millie. Together, they are committed to promoting inclusivity under the #OneRovers umbrella, ensuring that Blackburn Rovers remains a welcoming and supportive space for all.
OUR STORY
Blackburn Rovers partnered with Her Game Too in 2022, officially launching the campaign at Ewood Park against Sheffield United for International Women’s Day 2023. By March 2025, the club had hosted several dedicated fixtures for both the men’s and women’s teams, marking nearly three years of collaboration.
Throughout this partnership, Blackburn Rovers has taken significant steps to promote inclusivity and eradicate sexism in football, ensuring a safe and welcoming environment for all supporters.
SANITARY PRODUCTS
Megan’s first initiative was introducing free sanitary products at matches to ensure female fans could attend games without inconvenience.
With the club’s full support, sanitary bins were installed in the concourse toilets, and free products are now restocked for every matchday.
Providing access to essential hygiene products is a crucial step toward inclusivity, allowing female fans to focus on enjoying the game without unnecessary concerns.
DEDICATED FIXTURES
Blackburn Rovers have proudly hosted three Her Game Too fixtures for the men's and two for the women's. Each fixture was dedicated to raising awareness of Her Game Too and championing women and girls at the club.
These special matchdays have included:
• Players warming up in Her Game Too t-shirts
• Engaging fan activities, including selfie frames and competitions
• The chance to win a signed shirt
• Celebrations of women and girls’ teams from across the region
These fixtures play a vital role in ensuring football is an inclusive space for everyone.
RECOGNITION
Megan’s dedication to inclusivity and equality in football has not gone unnoticed. Her work with Blackburn Rovers and Her Game Too has earned her recognition, including:
• A nomination for Three’s We See You Network – Community Champion (2023)
• Being shortlisted for the “Be More Barbara” award at the Blackburn with Darwen International Women’s Day event (2025)
Her passion and commitment continue to make a meaningful impact at the club and beyond.
BLACKBURN ROVERS WOMEN
At Her Game Too, we remain committed to championing Blackburn Rovers Women - ensuring the team receives the recognition, opportunities, and respect they deserve.
While we acknowledge the recent changes to the women’s team status, our support for the club, the staff, and the players remains unwavering. We stand with them through this transition and continue to push for progress and visibility in the women’s game.
