Andrew Diaz de Padilla Andrew Diaz de Padilla, 2024 Coaches 4 Coaches Recipient

"Thank you so much for your generosity and support through the Coaches 4 Coaches scholarship, which made my first experience at the AVCA Convention possible. Attending the convention was truly mind-blowing and reaffirmed that I am on the perfect career path as a volleyball coach. The sessions I attended provided invaluable insights that are already making a real difference as I recruit new athletes, prepare to train my current players, and reflect on the future direction of my coaching career. Your contribution not only enriched my professional growth but also inspired me to strive for excellence in serving the volleyball community. Thank you for helping make this transformational experience a reality."

Andre FosterAndre Foster, 2022 Diversity Award Recipient

“The AVCA Diversity Award has created an opportunity to cultivate and build meaningful relationships with past and present award recipients. While continuing the education process through various speakers and classes throughout Convention. The relationships that you will build are beyond the court and the game of volleyball and this is an opportunity to learn from those who have been in your shoes and only want to see you succeed and to be the best that you can be.”
