To coincide with the game changing year reaching nearly 1,000 member clubs and establishing 3 new events, one of which is the first JVA hosted event on the west coast, the JVA is proud to announce the most decorated Ultra Ankle® JVA All-National Team to date. The JVA Awards Committee has selected 80 female student athletes from JVA members clubs across the country to represent the top JVA member club players in the 15s-18s age divisions.
“The amazing pool of talented athletes among JVA member clubs made it extremely difficult to select our Ultra Ankle® JVA All-National Team. We are very proud of every athlete that plays under the JVA banner across the country. Congratulations to these 80 young women who represent the best of the best in the Junior Volleyball Association” shares JVA Executive Director Jenny Hahn.
