William Floyd Serves Up A Winner


Sets for Tourettes Tournament | William Floyd School District | X

The William Floyd High School National Honor Society hosted “Sets for Tourette’s,” a volleyball tournament to benefit the Tourette Association of America.

Under the direction of advisors Salvatore Alfredson and Rebecca Penney, the event, organized by Class of 2024 alumnus Gabriel Holfester, raised $1,300, which will go toward the Tourette Association of America. The organization's mission is to provide help and hope to those affected by Tourette Syndrome, tic disorders and associated conditions through awareness, research and support.

Thirty-two teams participated and the lacrosse volleyball team won the tournament. The participating teams raised $1,000 in advance of the tournament, and another $300 at the door from spectators for this great cause.
