I'm getting very excited because the best beach volley players in the world are coming to my hometown, Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

FIVB is coming at the end of February and the best players from all over the world will be competing. Last years men's finals pitted the best team from Brazil against the top Northamerican team, Phil Dalhausser and local boy Nick Lucena.

Here I am together with Olympian Phil Dalhauser.

The women's final was number one team from Brazil, vs.number two team from Brazil. In the picture I'm together with Kerry Walsh. Her team came in third place. I thought she was going to ask me to be her new partner but it didn't happen LOL!

I play whenever I can. I really enjoy the game even though I'm just a beginner and not nearly as good as the players that will visit South Florida.

Luckily the local players get to play at the same beach where the event is held and we get to be able to get very close to the action. The finals last year drew over 4,000 spectators.
