🌸🏐 THAT’S A WRAP ON THE FLOWER CITY INVITE! 🏐🌸

After months of planning, countless conversations, and plenty of adjustments along the way, it was pretty special to finally see the Flower City Invite come to life this weekend.

A huge thank you to Syracuse University and Canisius University for believing in the vision for this event and making the trip to Rochester. From working with 150 young athletes at Saturday’s free clinic to competing on Sunday, both programs embraced what this weekend was really about: giving young athletes an opportunity to experience Division I volleyball up close and helping us continue to grow the game in Rochester.

Thank you to Rebecca Leclair for all of the work behind the scenes throughout the months of planning, and to Visit Rochester for their support in welcoming both programs to our city.

Thank you to the Rochester Red Wings for helping us kick off the excitement all the way back in June, giving the two head coaches the opportunity to throw out the first pitch and helping us announce the Flower City Invite to the Rochester community.

And when a last-minute venue change could have completely changed the weekend, Matt Cohen, the St. John Fisher Men’s Volleyball team, and St. John Fisher University stepped up without hesitation. Matt and his team helped us make the transition to Fisher and were there throughout the event helping us run it. We are incredibly appreciative of everyone at SJF Cardinals for opening their doors and helping us make sure the event could still be everything we envisioned.

Finally, thank you to the 150 kids who participated in the clinic, the families, coaches, athletes, volunteers, and everyone who came out and filled the gym on Sunday. Seeing so many people from our volleyball community together made all those months of planning worth it.

The Flower City Invite started with a simple idea: bring our volleyball community together, create opportunities for young athletes, and Grow the Game.

Thank you to everyone who helped turn that idea into a pretty special weekend for volleyball in Rochester. 🌸🏐

🍊🏐 Look who stopped by the Flower City Youth Clinic!

A HUGE thank you to Otto Orange for joining Syracuse Volleyball and making a surprise appearance at our clinic! Our young athletes absolutely loved getting to meet Otto, and there were plenty of smiles, high fives, and pictures to go around.

Thank you, Otto and Syracuse, for helping make an already special day even more memorable for our kids! 🧡🍊
