Jan Furman and Mark Hull will be combining their years of experience and expertise to create a comprehensive training program for all juniors aged 18 and under.
Why Beach Volleyball?
The nature of doubles sand volleyball emphasizes the “complete” player, where all the skills of passing, setting, hitting , digging and blocking are used in every play. The confidence that comes from playing doubles and being involved in every play can produce tremendous benefits in ball control and mental toughness – skills that every coach looks for in any athlete. The physical conditioning and quick twitch muscle development from playing in the sand translates into quicker movements and higher vertical jumps when the beach players return to the indoor court.
