Sarah Pavan is far from retired. She’s ”chasing peace”

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Sarah Pavan, the most decorated beach volleyball player in Canada history, with a World Championship (2019), Commonwealth Games gold medal, Team of the Year (2019), three-time Blocker of the Year, and a pair of Olympic appearances to her name. This was such a fun conversation with Pavan as she nears the twilight of her career, discussing: The stark reality of sport, and how the greats just fade away while the game moves on What her next move is, as a partnership with Sophie Bukovec ended earlier than expected Her love of practice, and grit, and just being tough Why she’s not chasing accolades, or gold medals, or praise and adulation, but peace. Just peace. This was a really, really good conversation, and we think you’ll enjoy! *** NEW BOOK ALERT!!! Travis Mewhirter and Kent Steffes just published a seminal work on the history of beach volleyball in their new book, Kings of Summer: The Rise of Beach Volleyball.
