Megan Burgdorf and Michelle Meyer, serving the sport they love through a startup: Beach Volleyball Consulting

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features longtime beach volleyball coaches and advocates Megan Burgdorf and Michelle Meyer.

The two have been involved in the sport in virtually every capacity. Both were players at the college level -- Burgdorf at Cleveland State, Meyer played club at UC Santa Barbara before an overseas career in Denmark -- and have coached at all levels of the game.

With the advent of the college game, however, the sport has exploded in numbers, and Meyer and Burgdorf saw a number of opportunities for a business to bridge many of the gaps being created. Thus, they launched Beach Volleyball Consulting.

It's a wide-ranging business, and in the episode, we discuss every corner of the game the two are covering, from grassroots to men's college beach to the AVP and FIVB.

On this episode, we cover:

- How Beach Volleyball Consulting was launched, and whom it serves

- The advent of men's collegiate beach volleyball, and how Burgdorf and Meyer are spearheading an effort to make it happen

- The importance of athletes building their own personal brands and adding value to their community

- College athletes getting paid

- The Pro Athlete Mentorship Program launched by Beach Volleyball Consulting that is connecting the top players in the country to juniors all over the United States

Thanks, as always, for listening to the show.
