Great inside look at the beach volleyball scene, Dec 15 2009
By Matthew Shubin - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Inside the Players' Tent: A Year of Professional Beach Volleyball (Paperback)
If you want a fun read this is the book to buy. The professional beach volleyball world has always been very intriguing to me. Billy's book has definitely captured the spirit of the beach volleyball scene. I can't wait to get out and watch some events next summer and look at the beach tour in a whole new light.

This review is from: Inside the Players' Tent: A Year of Professional Beach Volleyball (Paperback)
Bill Strickland's words drip with emotion as he describes triumph and defeat, on and off the court, in pursuit of his dream to become an ace professional beach volleyball player. A great read for anyone who likes a good story. A must read for any volleyball fan or anyone who has ever followed a dream.

This review is from: Inside the Players' Tent: A Year of Professional Beach Volleyball (Paperback)
Sports books and movies are too often Hollywoodized in this day and age to ensure the pefect happy ending or payoff for the customer. In his book "Inside the players tent" Bill Strickland details an honest and authentic account of of his first full season on the AVP tour. He's forthright about his shortcomings and insecurities. He details the the daily grind and the highs and lows of being an underpaid athlete on the AVP. This book is a great read for sports fans in general.
