Redgol is currently the largest digital sports media brand in Chile and its female focused vertical, Redgol Fem, aims to elevate women in sport. Redgol Fem produces daily content focused on female leaders and athletes across a full spectrum of sports including soccer, tennis, boxing, and more. Authored by female journalists, Redgol Fem’s content amplifies the growing excitement in women’s sports across the Americas.
The 2022 FutFem Awards were hosted in Chile and livestreamed exclusively through Redgol’s YouTube channel. As part of the festivities, LatAm Airlines, Unimarc, Red Bull and several other brands served as sponsors of the event. Partnering and aligning with leading corporate sponsors to increase the visibility of women’s sports is a key objective for Playmaker’s digital sports media brands, and the company is committed to building on the momentum generated by the FutFem Awards.
“For us at Futbol Sites and Redgol in Chile, we are very proud to be the one to take the lead in the coverage of women’s soccer,” said Paulina Agüero, Futbol Sites Country Manager, Chile. “For the second consecutive year, we organized this awards ceremony for the best players in the Chilean League. But this is not an isolated event, it speaks to the content that Redgol and Futbol Sites are producing in order to best support and strengthen women’s sports.”
As a result of the tailwinds in women’s sports, the 2022 FutFem Awards drew an attendance of over 300 guests and tripled award voting compared to 2021’s inaugural event. Hosted by renowned Chilean journalists, Grace Lazcano and Rodrigo Herrera, the FutFem awards recognized outstanding achievements across 14 categories, including Goal of the Year, Best Coach, Best Positional Players, Best Communicator (journalist) and more.
