“We are excited to celebrate the 45 incredible athletes named to this year’s JVA Best in Beach!” said JVA Executive Director, Lisa Wielebnicki. “We couldn’t be more proud to recognize the hard work and passion for the game that sets these beach volleyball athletes apart. They are not only top competitors in their respective graduation class, they’re role models for the next generation of beach volleyball athletes, showing what it means to lead with dedication, determination, and a love for the game.”
The honorees were selected by the JVA awards committee from the JVA Beach Watch List powered by VKTRY Performance Insoles nominees submitted by JVA Club Directors. In order to be considered for JVA Best in Beach, the athletes were required to compete in at least one BVCA/JVA Club Challenge Series event during the current season or JVA beach insured event.
