So our matches in Hawaii this year will be played on the beach . Um , and then all of our fall tournaments were played on an actual beach . So we played in Manhattan Beach , Huntington Beach , um Santa Monica Beach , and then we played a few in Hermosa Beach and we practice there also sometimes which is super cool to get the elements like the wind that you don't really have to think about at a home facility because we are in the middle of a city , but the wind definitely adds a different element to the game .

And that's a big reason also that my coaches were drawn to me . It's because of the work ethic and I would say every single girl on our team right now has that work ethic because that's what it takes to get to a national championship program as a collegiate beach volleyball player , we practice six times a week , we're in the gym , lifting or conditioning five times a week and that has stayed consistent through off season . And while right now , we're getting into our season just because we take preparation super seriously and want to make sure that we're at the top of our game .
