Women's Pro Beach Volleyball - Kerri Walsh Jennings

An interesting read about the women's professional beach volleyball tour, the Association of Volleyball Professionals (AVP - I actually played on this tour back in the day when the prize money was big and we had over 20 events across the USA!) and the upcoming 2020 Tokyo Olympics!

I would encourage VolleyFolks to bookmark the espnw site, as this seems to be the one constant national media outlet providing any coverage of women's volleyball (college or the beach).

For instance, there is a big international women's indoor tournament being played right now, with teams playing at sites across the world and I can't find coverage on any of the media outlets.  My only information is coming from the FIVB (plus USA Volleyball and Puerto Rico Volleyball) site, which is actually streaming matches and showing some great highlights (like Japan beating Brazil 17-15 in the 5th with some crazy defense!).
