The U.S. is sending both a men’s and women’s team to the Partille Cup which takes place next week in Gothenburg, Sweden.  Coaching both teams will be Julio Sainz.  At the Club National Championships I sat down with Julio and we discussed a number of topics to include:

– Dual citizen players and their impact on our youth and junior teams
– How Javier Galindo, who will play next year for Liga Asobal club, Granollers, was discovered on a tennis court in Los Angeles
– The development of the LA Women’s Team club.

Interview length is approximately 18 minutes
