Rival Volleyball

Awards and love on Wednesday night ♥️

Our Rival family is coming together to support one of our own during an incredibly difficult time. ❤️

On May 5th, Volkan Oztas (Ozzy from our 17/18u team father ) suffered a massive heart attack and has been fighting for his life ever since. He was revived with CPR three separate times and transferred between multiple hospitals before arriving at Memorial Regional Hospital, where he continues to recover in the ICU.

After five terrifying days, his family finally experienced a miracle Volkan was extubated and spoke his first words. While this moment brought hope, the journey ahead is still long. His recovery will require ongoing ICU care, specialized treatments, rehabilitation, medications, travel expenses, and temporary relocation for his family to stay close by his side.

During times like these, we want to show the strength of the volleyball community and remind this family they are not alone.

If you are able, please consider donating, sharing, or keeping the Oztas family in your thoughts and prayers. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. 🙏🏼❤️

Together, we can help carry Ozzys family through this recovery journey and back home to the people who love him most. https://gofund.me/70383904e
