Sam Schachter, Dan Dearing, and the New Culture of Canada's Top Team

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features our annual Spring-is-here episode with our neighbors up North: Sam Schachter and Dan Dearing. Per usual, they dropped by Hermosa Beach for a month for a pre-season training camp, gearing up for a final push at the 2024 Paris Olympics. On this episode, we chatted about:

  • What lessons Sam Schachter and Dan Dearing learned from a very full 2023 season
  • The new standards of their coach, Srdjan Veckov, and why he was actually mad when Sam Schachter and Dan Dearing beat Miles Partain and Andy Benesh last December
  • The new culture of their team, and why Dan Dearing is now gladly puking after conditioning (well…kind of gladly)
  • The thin margins between victory and defeat at the Challenge and Elite16 level

And much more.

NOTE: Dan’s mic got unplugged and his audio is absolutely terrible. Our streak of mostly decent audio is back to zero. Apologies for the gaffe and we appreciate your patience, as always.

SHOOTS!
