Before we at vballrecruiter.com can conclude the 2021-2022 club season we have a few remaining items to get to. One is our final National Rankings, which we’ll start releasing next week. In the meantime, we’ll continue to reveal our 2022 Club All-Americans. We’ve named them from both the 18s and 17s division already. Up next is the 16s division, which you can find below.

First, let’s discuss what goes into compiling our All-American awards. While everything is subjective, the factors we weighed in determining the list – which features 24 First Team All-Americans plus Honorable Mentions – include individual talent, impact on the team and overall team success throughout the club season. Future potential or eventual collegiate impact have no bearing on the award. We only factored in what happened during the most recent club season. With so many talented players scattered across the nation, finalizing an award list like this has its challenges. Everyone who deserves recognition cannot be included and our awards are certainly not an end-all, be-all list. Unfortunately, even with 24 First Team All-Americans plus Honorable Mentions, deserving players will be left off. Ultimately, we recognize who we felt were most deserving based on the factors discussed above.
