Rednall said: "There is absolutely nothing stopping the women that are at the top of the game beating the top 16 and beating the men.
"Again, it comes down to experience on the portable rink, but how are you going to get that if you don't try and qualify?
She added: "Men don't like it, let's face it, what man is going to enjoy losing to a woman — the satisfaction of that is great so why not try to give the men a good scare?
"That's the beauty about bowls: You can all play together."
Has Katherine Rednall won any titles?
Katherine is a seven-time World Indoor Bowls Champion.
She lifted the singles titles in 2014, 2017, 2018, 2022, 2023 and 2024 — holding the record for the most individual titles.
After going through qualifying to reach her first world championship at the tender age of 18, she went on to win the tournament at the first time of asking, becoming the youngest person ever to do so.
Speaking about getting through qualifying in Poole, Dorset to reach the event, Rednall said: "I remember having to play seven games and only scraping through, I just beat Amy Stanton.
"For me at that time it was more about just being there, I never thought I had a chance of winning it but I just wanted to play well and enjoy the experience, especially as it was on television, which was so different.
"I remember having loads of practices at really funny times at the day. It was bizarre really, I found myself rolling up with Paul foster and Alex Marshall and it just felt so strange to be playing with these men that had won everything.

"I remember setting my alarm to go down really early one morning at 5.30am and David Gourlay rocks up with me there with my hair everywhere looking like I had just fallen out of a bush.
"It was really surreal, but I knew that I could learn so much from these people. I thought if I just copy what they were doing I couldn't go far wrong."
In 2016 Katherine also won the mixed pairs title alongside Darren Burnett.
