Riverhead High School volleyball spotlighted wellness on and off the court, hosting a Mental Health Awareness Game in partnership with Ryan’s Team.

The event centered conversation around reducing stigma, encouraging students to check in on one another, and connecting families with support resources.

Before the first serve, players and coaches participated in a brief moment of reflection and a PSA about recognizing warning signs and seeking help. Throughout the evening, fans saw green ribbons and themed warm-ups in support of mental health awareness. Ryan’s Team representatives were on hand with materials about peer support, stress management, and how to talk to a trusted adult or counselor.
