Green had been matched up with Summer Walker for the season, however, due to another commitment, Walker was replaced at nationals with Vicaretti.

In the volleyball BC Sand series events in Vancouver, Kamloops and twice in Penticton, Green and Walker won gold. They also won the Vancouver Open, Kits Festival and the Provincial Championships.

With Vicaretti stepping in, the run continued with the victory at nationals.

Both athletes train at the Energy Volleyball Club for both beach and indoor. Their coaches are Wayne Green and Euan Robertson.
