    Profile

    Britt Herbots started to play volleyball at a very young age; her mom was a player, and her dad was a coach.


    The Belgian player grew up in Sint-Truiden and attended school there until I was 14. Afterwards, she went to the volleyball school in Vilvoorde, where she started to understand that volleyball was important to her. When Britt was 16, she played for Asterix Kieldrecht, and after two years, she decided to leave Belgium. She went to play in Mulhouse in France, had an amazing experience, and she went to Italy after one year.
    And she never left... 5 years in this wonderful country, two years in Busto Arsizio, two years in Novara and last season in Florence.

    Herbots has been part of the Yellow Tigers since 2016, making great memories and ready to make more.
