The road to having women in
sports was very long and hard. They had to suffer segregation, being
teased, and even being seriously injured. The strong ones still got
up every morning and did what they needed to do to pave the way so
little girls had a chance to play sports when they grow up. That
strong character has made a mark on the women of today. Those who
played sports showed others that the woman of yesterday is gone, and
that the woman of today is here to stay. The road those pioneering
women paved made it possible to have such leagues as the WNBA.
To better understand about what women had to go through and/or what they play now professionally, here are some links that will help you comprehend this.
