Kaia Rhodes spelar i danska topplaget ASV. Hon Àr frÄn USA och Àr vÄr nÀsta BIP Star att presentera
Who is Kaia Rhodes? – I am 23 years old, and at this point of my life I am practicing how to be a better learner. I am trying to take every experience that I am met with and accept that I am meant to have it and in some way, it will shape me. Being an athlete is a big part of me and I am thankful for it. I am a sister, a daughter, a friend, a dog fanatic and a woman of faith
Why did you choose to play for ASV in Denmark? – I chose to play for ASV in Denmark because of the talent I experienced over summer practices. I admired how competitive the women on the team were out of season and I valued that being straight out of college
What is your background in Volleyball? – I started playing volleyball when I was 13. I played for my high school team and then club teams Nov.-April every year until I graduated. I then went to play volleyball in college for 5 seasons and not only did I improve my game but I also began to coach children!
You have now been in Denmark for couple of months now. What are your experience and thoughts about Denmark as country? – I enjoy Denmark! I am originally from Las Vegas and I love the sun, which is definitely an adjustment but I also am loving living my every day life so differently. I have experienced a different culture which is so beautiful and fascinating. I have experienced a different outlook on sports and being an athlete which has been very eye opening and I have also experienced a different pace of life which has been refreshing
And what are your thoughts about the Danish League? – I have enjoyed playing in the Danish League so far. There is a wide scope of talent which is a bit different than playing at the collegiate level. When we scout a team, not many things are similar across scouting reports. No two teams play the same game, which is fun. It is awesome to feel like you will never face the same opponent twice. Even though we do- when we play a team the second or third time around they have changed and evolved a bit more than what I was used to
Are there any specific things that you are missing from USA? – I do miss plenty of things from home but I think mostly what I miss is my family obviously and going out for breakfast. I miss my American breakfasts
What is the best with Denmark? – The best thing for me in Denmark is the ability for me to have easy access to a big city without living directly in it. I live in a smaller city and commute on a train to Aarhus to play and I love getting the city life feeling without actually having to live in the city
And of course, what is the best with ASV and your new home town? – The best thing about ASV is the experience that I am getting! I am meeting wonderful teammates/coaches while getting more experience as a volleyball player. I am playing more defense than I ever have in my entire life and I am enjoying it for the most part
What are your goals with your volleyball? – As of right now, my goal with volleyball is to reach my full potential. As an athlete I have reached my goal of playing at the collegiate level but I didn’t feel done yet. I had more room to grow and a desire to continue growing so my goal right now is to continue that growth and reach what I hope someday will be my full potential
What are the goals for your Team this season? – As a team we want to be our best, but our overall goal is to finish at the top of the Danish League. We have the talent and the ability to fight through struggles and we have a goal of getting to finish at the top of the Danish League
Thank you Kaia for your time and good luck this season in Denmark

Detta ligger i direkt anknytning till BIP Winter Camp Holmsundsom Àr 2-5 januari 2023 i Holmsund
Vi lyckades fĂ„nga Taylor Bruns frĂ„n Göteborg, som just nu ligger pĂ„ en femtonde plats i elitseriens poĂ€ngliga, som passare! Hon snittar just nu ca 10 poĂ€ng per match đ. Taylor har mĂ„nga Ă„r i Europa, men hamnade tillslut i Sverige igen! Vi fick en pratstund, pĂ„ engelska!
Who is Taylor Bruns? – Loaded question, but Iâd say Iâm just an American who fell in love with a Swede and subsequently Sweden, and now Iâm lucky enough to live and work here AND get to play the sport I love at the highest level in the country
Taylor with her husband Anton
You are right now in 15th place on the best scorers for the Swedish Elitserien with 59 points in 6 matches! How is that possible for a setter? – Huge credit here has to go to our passing! I love being offensive and my teamâs passing has been crucial to my success in that area. Itâs also easier to be offensive towards the beginning of the season, before other teams can get a good scouting report on you. The bright side is that when teams start stopping me, this makes more room for my hitters to get kills so itâs a win â win situation in my book!
How did you end up in Göteborg? – I came to Sweden 5 years ago, to play for Tony Westman, who would end up being one of my favorite coaches đ, and Hylte Halmstad. While there, I met Anton Wijk Tegenrot, who Iâm now married to! He got a job in Göteborg after he graduated and I moved here last year so we could be together after years of long distance. Nate Brinker, president of Göteborg Volleybollklubb, graciously allowed me to practice with the A team, who was going through the covid year at that time, in preparation for my first season with Athletes Unlimited. The club set the goal to move up to elite and I am so happy to have gotten to be a part of that process â and here we are two years later!
How has your volleyball journey been? – I started playing when I was 7 years old and I never looked back. I have gotten to play for 7 organizations across 5 countries and I could not be happier with how my life has turned out thanks to volleyball. I have made a lot of amazing memories, and have gone through my fair share of rough patches as well, but my love for the game has never wavered
Taylor from her time in Germany
Its looks really good for you and your Team to reach the Grand Prix in Uppsala in January! What are the goals for your Team this season, for the Grand Prix and Play-offs? – Our first goal going into the season was to stay in the Eliteserie â we didnât want to be the club that moves up and then right back down again. Our second goal was to make playoffs and finish middle of the pack. We knew we had something special with this group, but we honestly didnât expect to be in the running for Grand Prix at this point in the season. Now that weâve gotten a taste of victory, itâs hard not to want to make Grand Prix! We have some really tough battles ahead, and a lot of good opponents coming up, but we are ready to fight as we try to secure a spot for Grand Prix in our inaugural season!
Göteborg is a new Team in the Swedish League and right now on third place and beat the Swedish Champions along the way! What are the strengths of the Göteborg this season? And what are you working on in the Team right now? – We definitely came into the season with the advantage of being unknown. Most teams in elite know each other and all the players very well, but coming from 1st division, we have been able to start as a mystery. Now that teams are starting to figure us out, we know we will face new challenges. However, we should still be able to capitalize on our strengths. We benefit from running a quick offense â our hitters have worked really hard to speed things up, and good passing allows up to find holes in other teamsâ block/defense. That means we are constantly working on improving our passing as it is so crucial any teamâs success!
Another huge reason we have been successful is the city of Göteborg itself. Our libero, Mathilda Granberg, was the only player who moved to Göteborg to play for us â everyone else was already living here for one reason or another and just so happened to have a love for the game, and talent to boot! Göteborg is a lovely city that attracts people from all over the globe; itâs only natural that some of those people happened to be talented volleyball players.
Göteborg Elitserien 2022-23
Which Teams do you think will play the Grand Prix Finals and Play-off final? – For me, Orebro and Engelholm have been standouts so far this season. Engelholm benefits from having 3 very strong foreign players to go along with a talented Swedish supporting cast that has equal parts experience and young talent. Orebro is a very balanced and complete team, with loads of experience. It would be very hard for me to predict a winner between the two! That being said, I wouldnât count out any team in the league, as they all have their strengths â I think we will definitely see some upsets, which makes for a fun season!
You are outstanding, the best setter in the Swedish League and you played here now for 3 years! Has the National Team contacted you at all? – Iâm not actually Swedish just yet, but I will be applying for my citizenship soon! So no, I hadnât really thought of the Swedish National team as an option, but I love what they have built over the years and am always excited to support them! I would love to be a part of what they are doing, in any capacity, even as just a fan!
What kind of advice will you give to young setters? Is there something in particular that you think is very important for setters to learn and practice? – Touch volleyballs. As much as possible, get reps â against the wall, to yourself, on net, with a team, solo, whatever! It seems obvious but I think it can be overlooked when we are talking about any skill. The fastest way to get better is just be constantly getting repetitions â and you can do this anywhere! You donât always need a net or a coach or teammates, but just a volleyball and maybe a wall. Setting to yourself while you watch TV, setting on the ground while you wait for your pasta water to boil â these little touches will put you miles ahead of those who wait for a practice time and instruction to get better.
The second biggest thing would be to WATCH volleyball! Various national leagues like Italy, Germany, or Turkey, European country and club championships, world level events; whatever it is, watching volleyball at a high level will increase your volleyball IQ, help you see how things should look technically, and give you inspiration for your own game â and itâs FUN!
Taylor at a BIP Camp
Please tell us a little about Athletes Unlimited that you are involved with in the USA! – Athletes Unlimited is the only professional volleyball league in the United States right now. It is a unique system where players change teams every week, giving viewers exciting new combinations of their favorite players each round! The league has boasted some legends of the game, including Jordan Larson, Sheilla, Betty De La Cruz, Nootsara Tomkom, and so many more. It has been so incredible to get to know and play with such amazing women. The best part is that we have a voice! The Player Executive Committee, which I have recently joined, works directly with the biggest stakeholders to make decisions and shape the future of the league. I am so grateful to our AU founders and staff who have worked tirelessly to give women in athletics the platform they have always deserved. Follow @AUprovolleyball and @AUprosports on Instagram for more information about the league and where you can watch! New, exciting announcements coming soon!
Thank you Taylor for your time and good luck with the season
