Women’s Volleyball To Tour Costa Rica May 14-22
May 09, 2022 | Women's Volleyball
MUNCIE, Ind. - - It's a big week for the Ball State women's volleyball program, as it makes final preparations for its second international tour in the last four years.
After an exhilarating trip to Europe in 2018, the Cardinals will visit a different part of the world starting this weekend when it embarks on a nine-day (May 14-22) journey through Costa Rica.
The opportunity will not only allow the group to grow as a team but provide a meaningful and educational experience to the program's student-athlete.
The NCAA allows programs to go on an international tour once every four years. After having not traveled abroad since a 2004 tour of Sao Paulo, Brazil, Ball State head coach Kelli Miller Phillips is working hard to ensure this educational experience is available to every four-year letterwinner of the program moving forward.
The program prides itself in working hard to compete at a high level versus both domestic and international competition. This is truly a once in a lifetime experience for the program's student-athletes, and they are excited for this opportunity.
