FIFA's top woman calls for quotas on boards

Quotas are needed to increase the number of women in the boardroom in the sporting world, according to one of the highest placed women in football.

FIFA executive committee member Moya Dodd believes she only gained her position at football's world governing top table because of the introduction of a quota for female representatives.

“In an ideal world there would be no need for quotas because you'd have well-functioning, merit-based systems providing equal opportunities,” she said.
