Countless studies(research will support)which focus on corporate leadership tell us that the key to identifying WOMEN who make it to the top in all areas of business, the professions, politics, etc., is to appreciate that they succeed because they possess the classic characteristics of the WINNER.They are imbued with a burning need to succeed. They are persuasive, bold, extroverted, sef-reliant, competitive, and ultimately concerned with power, status and reward not unlike their male counterparts who sit at the top of The Fortune 500. Great training ground for life after college sports. Great training ground for women whenever and wherever. That's what's happening on these courts.
