The STRIVE Award for Organization of the Year, now in its seventh year, celebrates youth and amateur sports organizations that not only display a genuine passion for providing opportunities but also prioritize the safety of young athletes. Triangle Volleyball Club’s comprehensive injury prevention program exemplifies this commitment.
