What do you love most about being involved in sports as an adult?
I love the challenge of competing, I love the laughs and friendships in teammates. I also love getting to play beach outside in the summer and how it's different than indoor.
Why do you think it's important for women to play sports in adulthood?
I rarely say no to volleyball! If it's something fun and you enjoy doing it you're more likely to be active doing it! So you're being active while having more fun :)
I find it helps me want to be more active in the gym too to help my volleyball performance, prevent injury, and help with my ever increasing aches and pains!
What would you say is the biggest benefit sport gives you?
It's a tie for the physical activity and friendships!
What's the best advice you have for other women who want to play sports?
Start somewhere and find something you love that gets you excited to get out to play.
