"My passion for volleyball started 18 years ago, since high school. I participated in events such as the World University Games in South Korea in 2015 and the Pre-World Championship with the senior team in the USA in 2017. Final Four with the senior team in Cuba in 2017. Today, I once again represent Mexico by playing in the Final Four in Ponce, Puerto Rico, a qualifier for the Challenger Cup. The teams we competed against were Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, and Guatemala. My role at JFK, more than a position, is my function: to help the institution in shaping our students to be better people through sports: Student Support Sports. Without JFK's support, I wouldn't be able to participate in this important representation for our country. I am very grateful for the support received to be part of the national team. Participations like these help me share experiences with the students." Pedro Ceballos, JFK Coach --------------------------------------------...
