How to get more ECs before Senior Year?

I'm going into my junior year this year and will be taking the IBDP. I am an average student and wanted to know if there is any way to add/improve my existing ECs to have better chances for college. As of the end of sophomore year, these are what I have

- Key Club (publicist, 1 yr)

-Spanish Club (member,2 yrs)

- Volleyball (JV, 1yr)

- Soccer JV team manager (1yr)

- Medical billing course at CC (5 months)

- medical core class (summer class)

-Freelance Artist (3yrs)

I'm also going to be part of another community service-based club this year, Project Planet A. I didn't realize how bland my ECs are. But would like help trying to expand upon these! Thank you so much!

I would suggest trying to become a leader in some of those groups.

Have you considered internships and/or research? Random but I will also be taking the IBDP as well! Good luck to both of us. :D
