National Team Tryout was at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs and one of the most successful coaches in the World is satisfied.
“I think we saw lots of potentials. The big thing is potential now, and how can each of these individuals maximize their development and accelerate their learning. There are clearly people here at this tryout who have serious USA potential. It doesn’t mean it is guaranteed though. They have to keep working at it and finding things they can improve” said Kiraly and added:
“We are incredibly blessed in this country to have so many players. We have a real advantage in how popular women’s volleyball is as a sport – the most popular sport and overtaking all the other team sports. Over half a million girls play in high school and hundreds of thousands of youth clubs and many, many thousands of scholarships in university. That is a real advantage over other countries, and they are jealous of that.”
Selections to the 2018 US Women’s National Team and the US Collegiate National Team will be announced starting in late March and early April.
