“Having adidas as a partner is a big step forward for our boys’ program,” said Boys Director, Hector
Kiely. “adidas is one of the few volleyball brands that actively supports the boy’s game with custom
jersey products designed for them. Our boys at USA Volleyball High Performance camps have been
wearing their product and like it a lot.”

accessories through the 2021 season. As part of the partnership agreement, all players and coaches will

better and we’re excited to provide UNO Volleyball with our newest and most innovative uniforms,
footwear, and accessories.”
