;D

When and if someone gets a ranking system off the ground -- please don't forget us ladies...

We work our tails off and travel all over-- just like many of the guys..

C'mon -- let's feel the love!!!!!!!

You need to get the other ladies on this board involved. Suggest a list of names. Say 3 classes:
0-132, 133-154, 155-Up.

[Nicole Cisco]

I would suggest at least in the interm - due to 98% of the tournaments there are only two classes 67kg 67+kg.. Names

67kg
Elaine Blik
Tamara Mitts
Judy Dodd
Andrea Paul
Margie Worden
Joette Peterson
(this is just a start up list)

67+
Mary McConnahey
Renee Been
Margie Bartz
Joyce King
Nicole Cisco
Cindy Looney
Cynthia Yerby
Beth Westberry
Christina Casto

and this was just off the top..

We were just talking about USA pullers right now. I will make a copy of your list and cross reference it with any other suggestions posted plus results from tournaments that I can find. I will let you know when the poll is posted.

Up here in the Northeast we have two great ones.

Karen Curavoo and Jessalyn Gillett . Karen everyone knows but Jessalyn is a lightweight powerhouse..

[Chris Gangi]

i think nicole is right about 2 classes and we should include the ladies in our rankings they work as hard or even harder them some of us........

also scott is right about jessalynn she is unreal and will be a world champ some day... ;D

[Keith Michel]

What you have listed, Nicole, is the bulk of the ladies. At least 99% of them. And in the order you have them, I guess.
The low numbers does not give you much movement in the rankings. Unless you go 1,2,3.

There needs to be more ladies.

Rather then rank them now. Lets see how many are active in the US and Canada.

[Nicole Cisco]

I along with many other ladies don't consider ourselves -- USA or AAA -- we just want to arm-wrestle. We go to whatever tournament we can go to -- that promises to have competition... If we start to limit ourselves to what organization is putting it on -- then we are only cutting our own throats, don't ya think???

I will continue to do whatever I can to promote the ladies sector of the sport -- right along with Elaine, Joyce, Beth, Heather, Renee etc -- we will keep on working on getting more ladies involved AND continue to train our butts off in the gym as well as on the table..
If you notice the talent of the ladies today -- the level is being raised tremedously .....

Nicole I will set up the poll in a couple of days. The only stipulation I mentioned was to be USA pullers as in the US only, not Canada for now. I will also add Jessalynn and Karen Curavoo.
