Designers Oliver Binnian and Willem Slegers design the UNPLAYABALL just in time for this year’s upcoming Women’s World Cup. The UNPLAYABALL is a concept football that metaphorically represents the challenges that are faced by women in the sport as a means to call for attention, action, and empathy.
The concept means to disrupt traditional norms as a symbol of gender equality in sports. The square structure represents the barriers that are faced by female players in what exists as a male-dominating sport. The UNPLAYABALL challenges the ideals and encourages conversations that need to be put in place for better treatment that works toward more equal opportunities for female players. Although it can’t be played on the field, it is a call for action to the community.
