After 3 days of really good competition at the 2022 AAU National Championships, the SoFLO 13u Boys team was seated #2 going into the final day of the tournament.  Our SoFLO Boys won their first two matches in 3 sets, in the quarter finals they won playing Bay to Bay Boys Volleyball Club from California, then they won the semi finals playing 630 Volleyball Club from Illinois.  By winning these matches the SoFLO Boys made it to the final match.

In the National Championship game the SoFLO Boys faced the #1 ranked team Spike and Serve Volleyball Club from Honolulu Hawaii.  As the final match went on the teams both won one set and in the 3rd set, with the game at 11-11, the Spike and Serve team pulled away with good serving.  Our SoFLO Boys won the Runner up Trophy and Silver medal and took 2nd place at the 2022 AAU National Championships.  

Congratulations to the athletes, Coaches and parents for this wonderful accomplishment at this years' AAU National Championships.  #2 in the Nation amazing finish to the season!

SoFLO Volleyball Academy has a reputation as the best Development Volleyball Training program in all of Broward County and this High School volleyball season was proof by results.  

Starting 4 Freshmen athletes on the South Plantation HS team, all of who were developed in the SoFLO Volleyball Academy since their beginnings in the sport, the South Plantation HS Volleyball team made it to the Regional Final Game this season.  The only public school to make it that far this year.  

Elena Lam a Freshman Outside Hitter and Maria Ustick a Junior Middle Blocker, both SoFLO Academy developed athletes, were named to the First Team All Broward County Volleyball Team for 7A-6A Division along with 3 athletes from St. Thomas Aquinas and one from Cooper City. With 40 High Schools and approximately 450 girls on those school teams, this was an incredible accomplishment for these 6 athletes to be named to the first team.   

Cyan Long and Leah Lowe 2 other starting Freshmen for South Plantation this season and both SoFLO Academy developed athletes, were named as Honorable Mentions and this too is a great recognition for all the work put in over the years of training.  

The other huge accomplishment was from one of the SoFLO Coaches, Coach Tania Lam, as she was named  All Broward County Coach of the Year for all 7A-6A Schools 2021-22 season.  

Congratulations to all the special athletes who were honored in these esteemed nominations from Sun Sentinel.  That  2 of the 6 first team athletes are SoFLO Volleyball Academy developed athletes and 2 other Honorable Mentions is a testament to the training philosophies that SoFLO Volleyball Academy has been teaching and implementing for over 12 years here in Southern Florida.
