Ted Lasso Season 4 follows AFC Richmond women's team challenges
The fourth season of the Apple TV+ series ‘Ted Lasso’ focuses on the challenges facing the Lady Greyhounds, AFC Richmond’s new women’s football team. The team faces systemic issues, including financial instability highlighted by the ‘Higgins Report’ and internal friction caused by cliques among defenders, midfielders, and attackers.
In the episode ‘Greyhounds’ Day Off,’ Ted Lasso attempts to build team unity through a pub trivia night, which results in a brawl and the team spending time in police custody. The episode also features the return of former characters Trent Crimm and Dr. Sharon Fieldstone, who discuss sports psychology and team building via a podcast.
New character Zelda Southport, played by Tracey Ullman, is introduced as a high-profile entrepreneur who invests in global women’s sports. Her arrival presents both potential financial opportunities and new complexities for characters Keeley Jones and Rebecca Welton as they navigate the commercial realities of women’s football.
