A long history of commitment
Playing the sport for over 25 years, Noris started at the age of 12 in Venezuela, inspired by her sister who was already playing and motivated by the excitement of local competitions. Her earliest memory is of her first major municipal championship at the age of 14, where her mother’s presence in the stands filled her with motivation and joy. “This championship was a key moment for me. Seeing my mother in the stands, supporting me every step of the way, strengthened my determination and passion for volleyball,” she said.
In her sporting career, Noris emphasises the crucial role of her family, especially that of her mother: “Without a doubt, my mother was a central figure. She always attended my games, cheering me on and supporting me every step of the way.”
