Hi Hala,
There are many heros and heroines, both professionally and in college. I think Michael Jordan was important, because he set the bar so high in professional Basketball. The same with Magic Johnson, Jerry West, etc. Too hard to single out one player. And everyone has their own heroes for their own reasons. As far as the difference between girls and guys basketball, there are minor differences in rules, but the game is played almost identically.

Expertise
My expertise is in the art of Officiating Basketball and I can answer questions pertaining to basketball rules; youth level through CIF High School, NCAA college and NBA rules as well. I can either help define a specific rule for you, or interpret a specific rule to clarify how other officials and I view and call the game.
Experience
I have been a Basketball Official now for over 19 years, officiating at all levels. I have attended numerous training camps throughout the years in an attempt to constantly become a better official. I have been evaluated by top Officiating organizations and I've had the honor of being selected to officiate at the highest levels including former Division 1 College and NBA players.
