The AV Camp in progress
Three-time UAAP Most
Valuable Player Alyssa Valdez is one of the best and gifted female volleyball
players in the country. From her humble beginnings in San Juan, Batangas to her
journey with the Ateneo Blue Eagles in the UAAP she has shown that a simple
girl from the provinces can make it big in the sport which has captivated the
hearts of many Filipinos.
Today she embarks on a new
mission and that is to teach kids the basics and rudiments of volleyball.
Alyssa’s love for volleyball is very evident as she spearheaded the Alyssa
Valdez Skills Camp for the many volleyball enthusiasts from six (6) years old
to eighteen (18) years old. Open to
everyone who has a knack for volleyball, the skills camp has three brackets
namely 6 to 13 years old for beginners, 14 to 18 years old and an open session
for those who simply want to learn volleyball.
The camp opened today at the
STI Academic Center in Calamba Laguna and will run through May 7, 2016. It will
also feature Alyssa’s friends with Gretchel Soltones, Joyce Palad, EJ Laure, JV
de Guzman, Amy Ahomiro, Jhoana Maraguinot, Bea de Leon and Ella de Jesus. The
Alyssa Valdez Skills Camp will also be held at the STI Academic Center in Cubao
