This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, is an ABSOLUTE BLAST! We have Jason Lochhead, the coach of Phil Dalhausser and Nick Lucena, in the house. It is a packed episode, filled with tremendous stories and, as a bonus, a New Zealand accent.
We chat about:
- What it was like for Lochhead to grow up as a beach volleyball player in New Zealand, a country not exactly known for beach volleyball
- His career as a player, nearly qualifying in the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games
- How he almost became a professional golfer before being recruited to coach the Vanuatu National Team
- Coaching Canadians Ben Saxton and Chaim Schalk to the 2016 Olympics
- The call from Nick Lucena that changed his life: Coaching Phil Dalhausser and Lucena to the 2021 Olympic Games
That, and, as always, so much more!
ENJOY!
