With over ten million fans, the WNBA has transcended sport and become a cultural phenomenon all across the country. Nearly two million people attended a WNBA game last season, and seven out of ten in attendance were women. With games airing on such national broadcast venues as ABC, ESPN, and NBA TV, the passion for women’s professional basketball has never been stronger.

Now, take a comprehensive look at the league’s formation—from the boardroom to the NBA to the movers and shakers who made it all possible, and take a retrospective of the league’s history and its breakout players. From interviews with the players, coaches, and officials, gain insight into the game’s appeal to both the men’s market and the lesbian community. You’ll get a peek into the locker room for insight into team dynamics, and examine the game from the fan’s perspective. The book also features a breakdown of all the teams, from their logo and uniform to their stars and stats, as well as many black-and-white photographs. This is a celebration of sport, of women, and of the power to achieve.
