WhY Tracy has created sports opportunities for women:
To foster personal and economic connections between women entrepreneurs living across New York State through their interactions on the “golf course” like men have done for years.
To create more networking, thus, financial opportunities for women in business who meet networking in a new sports activity or adventure.
To inspire women to higher levels of self-confidence, bravery, and capability.
To share 50+ years of the love of sports imparted on her as a child and taken up throughout life’s journeys.
To provide rare opportunities for women to gather with other women to form bonds through outdoor or indoor athletic activities.
To share life’s wisdom with other women.
