AVP-Austin-Open-Event-Guide.Pdf Who will take it home in 2019? Founded in 1983, the AVP is the longest standing and most well known American beach volleyball organization, facilitating national tournaments, developing new talent, invigorating communities through sport, and promoting a beach volleyball lifestyle across the United States. The AVP’s second stop on the 2019 Tour is to the second largest state in the country, Texas. The capital city of Austin playing host to high-level volleyball is nothing new to the area. Combine a passionate fanbase with the country’s top pro beach volleyball athletes, and a little extra sprinkle of that Austin-weird, this tournament is sure to be one of the can’t-miss stops on tour. In 2018, the AVP saw Phil Dalhausser, Nick Lucena, April Ross, and Alix Klineman take home first place in the Austin Open. Dalhausser and Lucena also won the Austin Open in 2018, adding on to their impressive resume. The AVP is excited to welcome you to the 2019 Austin Open. The 2019 season is shaping up to be an amazing experience for all, highlighted by eight unique tour stops. AVP events embrace the beauty of our sport and the lifestyle, and we look forward to sharing this with the community in Austin.

Amazon Prime Video Watch all of the AVP action each day on Amazon Prime Video, where we will be livestreaming three courts with on-court interviews, commentary & analysis from Kevin Barnett, Camryn Irwin & Dain Blanton, and exclusive athlete segments. The AVP pros are ready for a new season of exciting matches and big prizes. Whether you are pulling for an aspiring new team - or a team of veterans - here is the breakdown for the teams to watch on the men’s side. Phil Dalhausser and Nick Lucena are both Florida natives that have established themselves as two of the top AVP athletes in the country. Dalhausser’s block and Lucena’s defense is a deadly combination and their dominant road to the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics proved that. Jake Gibb and Taylor Crabb are also ready for the new season. The former NCAA Player of the Year from Long Beach State brings explosive defense and creativity to the sand. Combine that with Gibb’s veteran savvy and you’ve got a team that is entertaining to watch and tough to beat. Tri Bourne and Trevor Crabb - Hawaiian natives and childhood friends from Waikiki – are ready to hit the 2019 season like a wave. Both have their foundation as blockers, can play defense, possess power and finesse in their game. NEW TEAM ALERT: Sean Rosenthal and Ricardo Santos. These Olympians have medals to back up their skills and showcase their experience. Rosie has made it to two Olympics in 2008 and 2012 with Gibb. His partner, Santos, has snagged gold, silver, and bronze jewelry from four Olympiads, representing Brazil. Ryan Doherty is paired up with John Hyden. Hyden is the oldest player in history to win an international tournament (41 years, 8 months, 15 days) when he and Bourne captured gold in 2014 at the FIVB Berlin event and Doherty, a former baseball pitcher from Notre Dame who has the distinction of tying for the tallest player on the beach (7-1) with Wilt Chamberlain. It’s a crucial year for American Women as the new guard battles to establish itself in the AVP – and we can’t wait to see how this season unfolds. These female teams will kick off the summer with us: April Ross and Alix Klineman played together last year. Ross, a true competitor, already has silver and bronze on her Olympic resume. Not only is Ross one of the most talented players to hit the beach, she’s teamed up with the 6-4 Klineman, who gave up the indoor game to step back onto the sand of her native Manhattan Beach. The duo won four AVP tournaments in 2018, including the last three of the season. Sara Hughes and Summer Ross may be young, but they are a force to be reckoned with on the beach. n the 2018 season, these two took home two AVP titles and appeared in four finals, frequently facing Ross/Klineman which has turned into an ongoing battle the fans are itching to see. Emily Day and Betsi Flint are both Loyola Marymount University grads. Even though they attended at different times – and never even really knew each other until the 2018 season – keep an eye out for these Lions. the duo won twice on the AVP tour last year and they’ve set their eyes on the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. A new team formed in 2018, Emily Stockman and Kelley Larsen bring veteran savvy into the 2019 season. They played four AVP events together last year and captured a season-high third place in the iconic Manhattan Beach Open. Although not the AVP finishes they were hoping for last season, don’t underestimate this team.

And rightfully so. They keep adding to their resumes with significant honors – most recently, Taylor’s 4-Star FIVB tournament with Jake Gibb (November in Chetumal,W Mexico) and Trevor’s sublime triumph at the Manhattan Beach Open last August. But while Taylor and Trevor won a few NORCECAs playing together, they could never capture an AVP or FIVB title, which, in part, led them to seek different partners. The Crabbs are not the only elite brother combo (see page 22) to seek the pro beach volleyball limelight. In fact, the most intriguing set of siblings may be the Partains, 19-year-old Marcus and 18-year-old Miles. Together, they were the youngest team to make an AVP main draw, which they achieved in Hermosa Beach, California, in July of 2017. Separately, Miles, at 15 years and seven I do (get excited when Miles months, became the youngest individual to ever make an AVP main draw. “ But it wasn’t until this past fall that Miles really broke out. He finished fifth in a fully loaded plays well). Regardless of AVP Chicago event with Paul Lotman, who at the time was twice as old as his precocious partner. Nevertheless, Miles’ poise under fire was truly exceptional.

    FEBRUARY 2016 Published by the Outrigger Canoe Club for Members and Guests at Home and Abroad OCC Spikers Succeeding on the Pro Circuit By Marilyn Kali Three Outrigger Canoe Club volleyball players are currently ranked in the top 14 pro sand volleyball players in the United States, and three more have made it to the top 125 in their first year as pros. The young men, who all learned to set, dig, spike and serve on the Baby Court, have played together most of their lives. Tri Bourne, currently ranked sixth in the U.S., won the AVP Championship in 2015 with his partner John Hyden. Trevor Crabb is ranked in 12th place, and his brother and pro partner Taylor finished the season in 14th place. After playing on the U.S. National Team (indoor) for two years, Brad Lawson turned to sand volleyball in 2015 and is ranked in 85th place. The bearded brothers McKibbin, Maddison and Riley, are also enjoying success in the AVP. Riley is 27, while Tri, Trevor and Brad are all 26, Maddison 25 and Taylor 23. Three of their OCC contemporaries are currently on the U.S. National Volleyball (indoor) team: Kawika Shoji (28), Erik Shoji (26) and Micah Christenson (22), and hoping to make the U.S. team for the Rio Olympics this year. Tri Bourne hammering a return. Tri was on the 2015 U.S. National Beach Volleyball team, and with Hyden is currently the number one team in the U.S. FIVB Rookie of the Year in 2014, winning the FIVB Berlin Grand and aiming for the Rio Olympics as well.

Hier dominierten bei der Positionswahl andere Überlegungen. on fire Nina Betschart und Tanja Hüberli (Schweiz) Die Viertplatzierten waren die besten Technikerinnen unter den Halbfinalistinnen. So konnte die Schweizer Abwehr- spielerin den Nachteil als kleinste Akteurin dieser Gruppe durch Spielwitz und eine gute Feinmotorik kompensieren. Besonders ihr Oberes Zuspiel – auch unter Zeit- und Posi- tionsdruck – war stets präzise. Generell investierte sie viel Energie in die Vorbereitung ihrer Aktionen. Alle Spielhand- lungen erfolgten aus einer optimalen Position zum Ball und mit einer positiven Gelassenheit. Beim Angriff setzte sie zwei besondere Mittel ein, um sich gegen die Blockriesen zu behaupten: Sie nutzte das Block- anschlagen durch eine verzögerte Schlagbewegung und platzierte ihre Shots variantenreich und präzise in den Ecken. Außerdem agierte die kleine Schweizerin mutig. Im Spiel um Bronze traf sie zum Satzende einen Angriffsschlag nicht richtig und der Ball segelte in die Bande. Direkt danach fotos: fivb verwandelte sie den nächsten Angriff mit dem härtesten Schlag des Spiels zum Ausgleich. Bei netznahen Angriffs- vier Kombinationen erst im aktuellen Olympiazyklus zusam- orten wendete sie den Blicksprung an und war damit meist Hamburg 2019: Wir blicken auf eine Beachvolleyball-WM zurück, die mit menfanden und somit auf keine lange Teamhistorie zurück- erfolgreich.
