[2][3] Her latest efforts include a push to give the original 1972 Lionesses team and all female football players legacy caps.
[citation needed] Gregory's inspiration for activism began when she watched Tottenham's male players celebrate their FA Cup victory in 1967.
[4] Fifteen women eventually met in her family's living room and conceived the team now known as White Ribbon.
The jurisdiction of the WFA was limited, however, as they were put in charge of day-to-day duties, but were not financially supported or allowed to play mixed football matches.
[10] However, Gregory actively expressed her dislike for the taking over of the FA, pointing out that it does not acknowledge the decades of work and longer history of the women's game.
[10] As of 2022, Gregory has been heavily involved in a project by the FA to award legacy caps to the original 1972 Lionesses and all female players that followed them.
Awarding legacy caps is a tradition with the men's England team, and recent efforts by the FA include a commitment to honor every women's player with them as well.
Nevertheless, Gregory and fellow WFA founder David Marlowe managed to recover many records and offered them to the FA.
