Desiree's Story

My passion is volleyball.

I've had a passion for volleyball ever since I was a little girl. I've had family members who always participated in a volleyball team, which increased my devotion for the sport. As I grew older and entered high school, I became a part of the volleyball team for 3 years and my love and passion for volleyball continued to increase. I have been putting in hard work to become the best I can be to participate in college volleyball.

Attending US Sports Nike Volleyball Camps will help me pursue my passion for volleyball because this is an extra step in becoming a better athlete. With the determination that I have and will put in when attending this camp, I will increase my abilities on the court and during games. Not only will I be better, but I will leave the camp content knowing that I put in work for something that I love. Being a part of a program like this would be great when attending college because I will put all that hard work that the camp has taught me into the sport and never forget to give up.

A Note from Ms. Quinn, Desiree's Coach

Desiree will benefit from participating in US Sports Nike Volleyball Camps because she has shown dedication to our team. She injured her knee a few weeks before the end of the season. This snag did not hold Desiree back from coming and getting dressed for each practice and game, and even putting up her kneepads to show the solidarity and sisterly love that she has for our team. By the time this summer comes around, she should be well on the road to recovery so it will be perfect timing for her to start her summer training.

Success! Ms. Quinn helped Desiree raise $750
