Max power ability in males versus females

Hi, I am currently supervising the training of collegiate division 1 men’s and women’s tennis teams and have been wondering about the power ability differences between the players.
Are women able to put out the same percentage of their max power in a single effort as men? Knowing that men will have a higher total capacity, is the ratio between the max power output vs. upper limit the same in men as women or are men able to put out a higher percentage of their max, upper limit, power?

Hopefully I am phrasing this question correctly, for me this would apply to how I coordinate their medball/plyos/sprints between the men’s and women’s teams.

Thanks for the help.

I would think that, relative to weights prep, the power output of MB and plyos would be somewhat self regulating. that said, there is the issue of overall exposure to this training means. Thoughts?
