julia’s Story

Greetings! I am a member of the USA U19 National Team, where our team achieved a Bronze medal at the 2021 World Championships and secured Gold at both the 2022 and 2023 Pan American Games. In 2022, I had the honor of being named the 2022-2023 Gatorade State Player of the Year, Max Preps Player of the Year and also received the Just Women’s Player of the Year award. Furthermore, I was recognized as the MVP of the USA U18 Volleyball Nationals in 2023. My passion for volleyball goes beyond the sport itself. It provides me with the opportunity to compete alongside my closest friends from all corners of the country. I am driven to play volleyball to serve as an inspiration to aspiring young athletes and to foster a deep love for the game among them.

WHY ULTRA ANKLE?

I’m a big fan of the Ultra Ankle brace. It strikes the right balance between keeping my ankle secure and allowing me to move comfortably. I’ve never felt constrained while wearing it, and it provides valuable protection against ankle injuries that could otherwise keep me out of the game for an extended period.
