Dear Coach,
I hope this message finds you well. I'm Amanda Dantas, a Brazilian-Canadian Grade 11 student at Strathcona High School in Edmonton (Canada), passionate about volleyball and committed to academic and athletic excellence. I'm reaching out to learn about your recruitment plans for setters and liberos for the class of 2025. Understanding your needs is crucial as I explore my options. I am particularly interested in universities renowned for their volleyball programs and Business education.
If you are considering these roles, I invite you to watch the 3-minute highlight videos I prepared to share with you. The video will provide you with direct insight into my on-court presence, volleyball IQ, and how my current skills might complement your team. For the best viewing experience, please ensure the video is watched in HD by adjusting the settings via the gear icon on YouTube.
I have been fully dedicated to the sport since 2016, when, at the age of 9, I played my first volleyball club season with Ducks 12U in Coquitlam (BC). The early start and consistent engagement have provided me with nearly a decade of growth, during which I have developed key strengths in self-control, agility, and a solid ability to set from out-of-systems play. These skills have been instrumental in my contributions to my teams, including aiding the Pandas Volleyball Club 16U in securing a Division 1 Tier 2 national championship in 2023.
I'm available to discuss my volleyball path and objectives. If you want more information, I can make myself available for a call or video chat at your convenience.
I appreciate your consideration. I look forward to your valuable feedback and any questions you might have as I navigate my future in volleyball and education.
For continuous updates and more highlights from my volleyball career, I invite you to follow my journey on Instagram at @amanda.dantas.volleyball.
Thank you for considering my candidacy. I look forward to the possibility of contributing to your team.
Best regards,
Amanda Dantas
