Mya Foster - Volleyball Profile

My name is Mya Foster, and I am a U16 Volleyball Player with a focus on Defensive Specialist/Libero and Outside Hitter. I’m entering my third year of competitive club volleyball at the National level, and I can’t imagine myself loving any other sport as much as I love volleyball.

When I’m not on the indoor court, I also enjoy playing Beach Volleyball, which allows me to compete and grow in the sport all year long. Volleyball has given me the chance to challenge myself, build strong team connections, and continuously develop my game at a high level.
