    About me

    My name is Helena Mihek, I’m a 2006-born middle blocker from Croatia. Currently, I play for ZOK Vrbovec, the same club where my mom once played. She has been my biggest supporter from the very beginning and the reason I fell in love with volleyball.

    I started playing when I was 7, and over the years, the court became my second home. I previously spent three seasons with OK Dinamo Zagreb, where I gained valuable experience at a high level and won 2nd place at the national cadet championship. I’ve also enjoyed beach volleyball, winning several local tournaments.

    For the past three years, I’ve been a key player in the inter-dormitory volleyball championship, earning MVP honors last year despite an injury.
    Since joining ZOK Vrbovec, I’ve been in the starting lineup every match, especially making an impact with my blocking, attacking, and overall court presence. Although my main position is middle blocker, I’m a versatile and adaptable player who can cover multiple roles when needed. In April 2025, my team (ŽOK Vrbovec) was awarded “Best Women’s Team” by the Sports Association of the City of Vrbovec, which was a meaningful recognition of our effort, teamwork, and progress throughout the season.

    Volleyball is my passion, but I also care deeply about academics. I’ve been a straight-A student since elementary school and currently have a GPA of 3.84. I’m finishing my studies as a dental technician and I’m especially interested in biology-related fields in college.

    Beyond stats and awards, what sets me apart is my energy and spirit. I bring positivity, motivation, and constant encouragement to my teammates on and off the court. My late father was one of my greatest supporters — he was at nearly every game, cheering me on. Everything I do now, I do with purpose — to honor my family, to fulfill the goals I’ve set for myself, and to grow into the athlete and person I strive to become. I’m motivated not by doubt, but by belief — in my journey, my progress, and my potential.

    I’m ready for the next step and I hope to bring my energy, passion, and commitment to a college team in the U.S. that will believe in me as much as I believe in this dream.
