Maya is a 17 year old student of New Plymouth Girls’ High School that will represent New Zealand at the Buenos Aires 2018 Youth Olympic Games.

How did you get into your sport? My Dad got me into the sport when I was in Year 8. He is the coach at my high school. In Year 8 I started going along to train with the older girls who were in the high school team and I absolutely loved it.

What do you love about the sport? I love that beach volleyball is a game of both physical and mental strength. In order to win, you and your partner must demonstrate both of these attributes to a very high level. Thi
