Partner Search

So far, the toughest thing for me this summer has been finding a partner! While it's been pretty difficult and a lot of work, in many ways it has been a blessing in disguise! I've met a lot of girls and made tons of contacts through out the process of trying to find a partner for every tournament. It gets pretty frustrating because there have been some big tournaments I've missed out on, however, now, when I am looking for people to practice with or to play a pick up game with, I have tons more options. 

At the moment, I'm working on finding a partner for the Manhattan Beach AVP. I've gotten some suggestions from other volleyball friends of mine and have a few options. I practiced with some girls today who are looking for partners and I have another practice tomorrow morning to see how I play with a different girl! It's a really weird process and definitely not comfortable, but it's good for me to have to break out of my shell some! 

Anyway, wish me luck! Hopefully, I will have an update by tomorrow on who I will be playing with in Manhattan!

Also, you can help me talk Pao into playing beach with me and then all my problems would be solved!!!! :D
