DELTA MEMBERS RECEIVE AWARDS AND THE AWARD GOES TO

2015 National Award for Outstanding Female Coach: Brandi Schultz of Code Blue Brandie coached one year for Fatchmo while playing in college. After she graduated she began coaching for Code Blue out of Little Rock. Early October she was diagnosed with Cervical Cancer. Not knowing what the final outcome would be, she persevered and was not going to let this terrible disease change her life. She continued to coach, go to school & work full-time. Her players-- both club and high school--along with former club and college players--rallied around her sporting the Teal Ribbons and wrist bands in a show of support. She set a great example of her faith & love of the sport. She is now cancer-free!

2015 National Award for Outstanding Volleyball Parent: Chad Hollenbaugh of HollenBall Jrs Chad founded Greenbrier Volley so his daughter would have a place to play club ball and was in his 3 rd year as Club Director when he unexpectedly passed away in the summer of 2014 in an auto accident. His daughter accepted the national award on his behalf with a loving tribute to her Dad. She is now Club Director.

2014 MERITORIOUS AWARD WINNERS Named in honor of Robert L. Lindsay, the eighth president of USA Volleyball, the Robert L. Lindsay Meritorious Service award is presented each year to recognize individuals who have made a significant contribution to volleyball at the local, regional and/or international levels through USA Volleyball or one of its Affiliate Organizations.
