It's also one of the most exciting. Stars such as Babe Didrikson, Wilma Rudolph, and Jackie Joyner-Kersee have been pushing limits - and breaking - records - since women were first allowed into the Olympic Games in 1928. Now it's your turn to take it even further. In such an amazing sport, the possibilities are endless! The history, the rules, and the heroines: these nonfiction accounts of women's sports relate the interesting insights of each sport, including the rules, game play, and standout athletes. Girls looking for role models as well as the "hows and whys" of their favorite game will find the answers in these fresh, accessible titles. Part history, part biography, and part instruction, Girls Play to Win allows readers to access "everything they want to know" about the game.

Book Synopsis Play Like a Man, Win Like a Woman by : Gail Evans
Download or read book Play Like a Man, Win Like a Woman written by Gail Evans and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2001-09-11 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An honest and practical handbook that reveals important insights into relationships between men and women and work, Play Like a Man, Win Like a Woman, is a must-read for every woman who wants to leverage her power in the workplace. Women make up almost half of today's labor force, but in corporate America they don't share half of the power. Only four of the Fortune 500 company CEOs are women, and it's only been in the last few years that even half of the Fortune 500 companies have more than one female officer. A major reason for this? Most women were never taught how to play the game of business. Throughout her career in the super-competitive, male-dominated media industry, Gail Evans, one of the country's most powerful executives, has met innumerable women who tell her that they feel lost in the workplace, almost as if they were playing a game without knowing the directions. In this book, she reveals the secrets to the playbook of success and teaches women at all levels of the organization--from assistant to vice president--how to play the game of business to their advantage. Men know the rules because they wrote them, but women often feel shut out of the process because they don't know when to speak up, when to ask for responsibility, what to say at an interview, and a lot of other key moves that can make or break a career. Sharing with humor and candor her years of lessons from corporate life, Gail Evans gives readers practical tools for making the right decisions at work. Among the rules you will learn are: • How to Keep Score at Work • When to Take a Risk • How to Deal with the Imposter Syndrome • Ten Vocabulary Words That Mean Different Things to Men and Women • Why Men Can be Ugly, and You Can't • When to Quit Your Job

Book excerpt: Covering the beautiful sprawl of Sonoma County, from Sebastopol and the coast to Healdsburg and Windsor and through Santa Rosa, Sonoma, and Petaluma, author Lee Torliatt offers readers a glimpse of the vivid and lively activities of the region's athletes and teams over 100-plus years. These photographs and images trace the accomplishments of the county's pivotal figures in football, baseball, track, basketball, boxing, ice hockey, tennis, and other sports.

Captured here is the famous upset when the Bonecrushers and Leghorns met in 1948, the short-lived but glorious years of an ice hockey team imported from Canada, the local enthusiasts who enjoyed hunting and fishing, the early female athletes of the region from the 1850s to 1952, and several legendary heroes of their times, including Helen Wightman, Smith Robinson, and Joe DeMaggio (before he was DiMaggio.)
Book Synopsis You Let Some Girl Beat You? by : Ann Meyers Drysdale
Download or read book You Let Some Girl Beat You? written by Ann Meyers Drysdale and published by Behler Publications. This book was released on 2012 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ann Meyers Drysdale is still the only woman ever to sign a no cut contract with the NBA. Time Magazine recently called her one of "The Top Ten Female Sports Pioneers of All Time." The first 4-time All American ever, man or woman; Ann won a silver medal in the '76 Olympics before bringing UCLA women their one and only Championship. The only woman ever invited to compete in ABC's Men's Superstars, today Ann is the only female VP on the only operation side of the NBA and an award-wining broadcaster who has worked for over thirty years with nearly every major television network But her meteoric rise wasn't without controversy. The press skewered her '79 NBA Pacers bid, while the first Professional Women's Basketball League accused her of "shamming herself" and slighting her sisters. Ann simply wanted to play basketball. And she wanted to play with the best. The first girl to play in an all-boy after school sports program, Ann later tried out for the boy's high school basketball team while parents screamed, "You're letting some girl beat you?" and classmates questioned her sexuality; but Ann refused to be held down. From becoming the first female to get a full athletic scholarship to a Division I school, to her historic NBA bid, Ann's memoris never let up, yet her athletic career is only half the story. She would endure the loss of a brother and a sister, and the untimely death of the only man she ever loved, Dodger great, Don Drysdale, leaving her with three young children to raise. Still, through it all, she continued to break ground. Book jacket.
