Jordyn Poulter Shines in Times Square After Olympic Success
Calling all volleyball and women’s sports enthusiasts: women’s professional volleyball has finally arrived in the US. Today, a full billboard display of Olympic silver medalist Jordyn Poulter was shown in New York’s iconic Times Square. Poulter originally played at UYBA Volley S.s.d.a.r.l., commonly known as UYBA Busto Arsizio or UYBA, Nasdaq-listed Brera Holdings PLC’s historic, majority-owned volleyball club.
“Jordyn Poulter represents everything that is right about this amazing sport. Her numerous achievements and medals are a real tribute to her talent and work ethic,” said Dicey McGraw, Head of US Operations at Brera Holdings PLC. McGraw played on the UCLA women’s volleyball team, including a stint as captain during her tenure at the university.
Poulter, like many US women professional volleyball players, started her career in 2018 playing in Italy. Italy has one of the best volleyball leagues in the world. As Poulter is just two years removed from her time at UYBA, making it to the Olympic finals is no coincidence.
“With Jordyn Poulter on their roster, UYBA was able to reach the semifinals in the European Champions League in 2022, and two years later she is front and center at the gold medal game representing the USA. At UYBA we love to see our current and past players excel on and off the court. It is also wonderful to see the sport of volleyball and all women’s sports continue to grow and get the attention they deserve,” commented Perrine.
