Description

Bryan McDermand is an American Beach Volleyball and Indoor Coach, and a former indoor and open level sand player. He is also the founder and head coach of "Progression Beach Volleyball Club," an indoor sand volleyball club with a state-of-the-art facility in Chicago. His volleyball IQ and application has made him one of the most respected coaches and volleyball minds in his region and to some, the country. This no-frills, straight-to-the-point coach does very few things that do not have a purpose, and I always enjoy trying and failing to catch him off-guard.
