The U.S. Women’s National Team recently had an exciting opportunity to connect with the next generation of volleyball stars during the USA Volleyball Girls 18s Junior National Championships (GJNC18) at the Anaheim Convention Center. As the official host city for both the U.S. Women’s and Men’s National Teams, Anaheim has been a fitting location for their training.
During the GJNC18, the U.S. Women’s National Team moved their practice session from the American Sports Centers to the Anaheim Convention Center, allowing more players participating in the championships to watch and learn from them. The training session was followed by a 30-minute autograph session, creating a great environment for everyone involved.
