I called my beast-inspired collection, Volleybragswag and I decided that each animal I chose would represent one of the basic six volleyball skills because of the natural characteristics they exhibit when in their natural animal kingdom.

There are specific volleyball designs for each animal who has their own shirt....there are owl shirts for owl lovers, koala shirts for those passionate for koala bears like I am and a zebra shirt for volleyball players and fans of striped horses.

Meet Ollie the Volleybragswag Opposite Owl

Meet Ollie the Volleybragswag Opposite Owl.

Ollie is an Opposite Hitter on the  Volleybragswag All Beast Third Team.

Ollie the opposite hitter specializes in playing on the right side of the court and is usually one of the team's best blockers.Animal T Shirt Ideas: Ollie the opposite hitter specializes in playing on the right side of the court and is usually one of the team's best blockers.

The opposite hitter specializes in playing on the right side of the court and is usually one of the team's best blockers, so they play opposite the setter on the court in zone 2.  



Ollie loves playing on the right side and maybe it has to do with being the second tallest blocker on the team. 



He builds a wall no hitter can get by because its super difficult to hit past him which is why he averages 3 blocks per set.



That’s Ollie’s swag, what’s yours?

This volleyball season be sure to Bring Out Your Beast on the court like Ollie the opposite Hitter Owl.

Animal T Shirt Ideas For Volleyball Players:

The Volleybragswag Volleyball LogosThe Volleybragswag Volleyball Logos


I created the signature Volleybragswag ball while working with a designer who originally started out by just creating a word logo. 

I thought the word logo by itself was unremarkable and boring. 

But a word ball...now that's one of the most interesting volleyball t shirt ideas created for a logo. 

The ball is our trademarked logo and appears in all of our Volleybragswag volleyball t shirt ideas and designs in one way or another.
