Conclusion

This concluding chapter traces the seismic shift in the way the WNBA has positioned itself, from the feminine emphasis of the early years of the league to the explicitly political actions of WNBA players today. It emphasises the argument made throughout the book: that the renewed optimism surrounding the WNBA is largely a result of the continuing demands by the players for better—better facilities, better pay, better marketing, a better, more professional league. It is the players that have made the WNBA the league it is today.
