Most interesting part to me was learning how intense Karch’s training sessions were. Good general overview book.

[Kendra Kimberlin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Expected this to be more dated and irrelevant, but it has so many great tips and tricks. Worth the read to improve your volleyball skills!

[Julie Glynn · Rating 4 out of 5]

Although this book contains some VERY basic information, it is still great to read it from the perspective of the King of the Beach.
