The women's soccer leagues in Europe are pretty new - I'd look at how they developed.
Curling shows virtually no difference in gameplay.

Soccer is a beast of its own globally.

Tennis and Golf, as they are individual sports, have huge marketability and the players have no city designation. It is easy to latch on to an individual you are a fan of and follow that person. Where as trying to make fans like a team with ever shifting players... it’s much more difficult.
