Hey there, volleyball fam! 🙌
Lets get ready for some serious spike action? The Pro Volleyball Federation (PVF) players are getting set for the second annual PVF draft on November 25 and each team;s players report to training camp on December 2, and let me tell you, the American pro volleyball climate right now is hotter than a jump serve on match point! 🔥
As the first-ever First Round draft pick in Major League Volleyball (humble brag, I know 💁♀️), I've got the inside scoop on what makes a draft pick sizzle. And this year's class? It's more stacked than a triple block at the net!
So, let's dive into the cream of the crop – the top 10 pro female volleyball players who i think will be impact players as professionals on the Pro Volleyball Federation circuit this season are about to set the pro volleyball world on fire! 🌟
Listen up people because Brooke Nuneviller is about to snatch your wigs and redefine what it means to be a volleyball queen!
This Oregon Duck hitter/libero turned pro outside hitter isn't just good; she's so versatile it's almost unfair to the rest of the volleyball world.

Listen up, because I'm about to spill some serious tea! 🍵 These volleyball queens aren't just bringing skills to the PVF; they're bringing a whole vibe. As someone who's been through the draft rodeo, let me break it down for you:
1. Versatility is Key: These players aren't one-trick ponies. They're the whole dang circus!
2. International Flair: Experience abroad? That's like having a PhD in Volleyball Worldliness.
3. Winning Mentality: Championships and awards? They collect 'em like Pokemon cards.
4. Adaptability: New team, new country, new language? No problem for these volleyball chameleons!
5. Star Power: These athletes don't just play the game; they are the game.
Now, let's talk about that international experience, because honey, it's the secret sauce! 🌍✨ Playing abroad isn't just about racking up frequent flyer miles (though that's a nice perk). It's about:
- Facing different styles of play: It's like being in a volleyball United Nations!
- Quick adaptation: New team every season? They adjust faster than you can say "jet lag."
- Volleyball IQ on Steroids: When you've played in Turkey, Italy, and Brazil, you're basically a volleyball genius.
- Mental Toughness: Homesickness? Language barriers? These queens eat challenges for breakfast!
Trust me, when you've served an ace in Istanbul or blocked a hit in Milan, you come back to the U.S. ready to take on the world – or at least the PVF!
Volleyball fam, the future of pro volleyball in the U.S. is brighter than a freshly waxed court under stadium lights! 🌟 These 10 queens are just the tip of the iceberg, and the PVF draft is about to be more lit than a tiki torch volleyball tournament!
To all the aspiring pro players out there, let me drop some wisdom: Keep grinding, stay hungry, and never stop believing in your dreams. Who knows? You might be the next volleyball sensation we're all obsessing over!
