Chaim Schalk's American career has finally begun -- from the bottom

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Chaim Schalk, a 2016 Olympian for Canada who has finally, finally, finally begun playing for the United States.

It's been a long road for Schalk, who had to sit out two years to transfer federations, then one more year for COVID. But beginning with a country quota win over Tri Bourne and Trevor Crabb, Schalk's career alas began again, with the four-star qualifier in Doha.

On this episode with Schalk, we discuss:

- How it felt for Schalk to compete again after such a long time off

- Seeing old friends, and how much the World Tour has changed

- Tri opens up about the country quota loss, and how USA Volleyball made the right decision to make him and Crabb compete

- Whether or not there should be country quotas at all on the FIVB, or if there is enough parity around the world to remove the quotas

- Schalk and Brunner's future as a team, and their ambitions
