In the early 1980s, a golden generation of volleyball players joined the U.S. men's national team. With the Olympics coming to Los Angeles in 1984, the pressure was on to build a winning program around these exceptional athletes. In If Gold Is Our Destiny, Sean P. Murray shares the incredible story of how a group of free-spirited players and their demanding coach captured the heart of a nation and became one of the greatest indoor volleyball teams of all time.

My 14 year old son enjoyed it!

Both my teenage son and I are volleyball players. We listened to this on our car rides to club vball practice and it was interesting and fun to learn so much volleyball history. I was appalled that my son did not initially know who Karch Kiraly was, but that was soon remedied with this book. Great story! Highly recommended!
