Well, FIFA's rules for maternity leave are a fine guideline, but on our tight budget here, fully paying a player for 14 weeks without her playing is a real stretch. We follow it, but it means dipping into funds we'd use for a new signing or youth coach. Just last season, we had a talented winger go on leave, and honoring her contract meant our physio's salary was delayed—it's a tough balance between regulation and reality.
