Get ready for some ‘double trouble’! I am so happy to bring to you the first professional Portuguese female beach volleyball team: Beatriz Pinheiro and Inês de Castro! Beach volleyball is such a different world (maybe even a different sport right?) from indoor volleyball, so talking to these young players that chose to follow the professional path so early gave me great insights on many many things. We talked about the main differences between beach and indoor volleyball, how to cope with being a professional athlete and a student at the same time, and Beatriz and Inês also shared a lot about how they evolved as a team and how their relationship and communication got better every season. I hope you enjoy learning more about the mental side of beach volleyball, the tactics and everything else connected to being a two person team. Don’t be shy and share your thoughts on the comment section! I would really appreciate to have your opinion on the voting section too (5 stars if it’s not too much to ask eheh!). If you’d like a bonus communication platform, I’m on Instagram @martahurst and I read every message, so I’ll hear you out for sure.
