To the players
“You chose to play in our city, and we’re proud to call you ours. We’ll be loud for every dig.”
For the Love of Volleyball
Compliment the Thrill
An invitation from Dawn Weir
Las Vegas, let’s fill our team with love before they hit the court.
Before the first serve of the season, let’s show the Vegas Thrill how much this city believes in them. Write a sincere compliment for the players, the coaches, the team staff, or the owner who kept pro volleyball in Vegas. I’ll gather every one and share them with the team.
A gift from the city, not an official team program.
This is a community invitation from Dawn Weir and Compliments for Change. The Vegas Thrill haven’t partnered with or endorsed it. Every compliment is read with care and shared with the team as a gift.
How to write one that lands
Make it specific. Make it sincere.
A compliment a player remembers names something real and says why it matters. Three quick steps:
- Step 1
Notice something real
Their effort, their teamwork, their courage, the way they show up for Vegas.
- Step 2
Say why it matters
What it means to you, your family or this city.
- Step 3
Keep it about heart
Effort, character and team spirit. Never bodies or looks, and no favors attached.
To the coaches
“Thank you for building a team that plays for each other. That’s the kind of team Vegas loves.”
To the team staff
“You make match night happen and almost nobody sees it. We see you, and we’re grateful.”
To Michael L., the owner
“Thank you for saving the Thrill. Because of you, my family still gets to cheer for pro volleyball at home.”

“I want our team to walk onto that court knowing a whole city sees them.”
Dawn Weir · Founder, Compliments for Change
I love volleyball, and I love this city. A sincere compliment can make the heart happy: that feeling of being noticed and supported. Imagine a team that starts its season already carrying thousands of them.
