Sunday Update - March 1, 2026
Hi Volleyball Players & Parents,
Welcome to the 2026 Westview Boys Volleyball season and congratulations to the players who landed a spot on a team! We have 3 full teams: Varsity with 16 roster players, JV with 15 roster players, and Frosh with 14 roster players. This year’s team rosters are now posted on the refreshed (and dramatically improved) Westview Boys Volleyball website.
If you are receiving this email, it means your player entered your email address into the Tryout Registration form. If you know of someone who is not included, included with an incorrect address, or if you wish to be removed, please email corrections and updates to westviewvb@gmail.com. (I must have at least one parent/guardian contact for each player.) You can expect a weekly email from me, typically on Sundays, with a comprehensive look at the week ahead. This one will be the longest of the season, so strap in!
Monday, March 2nd - Picture Day, please remember to bring both uniforms. Varsity players who have 4th period off roll should be at the gym by 3:20pm. All other players should arrive by 3:45pm. Following individual, team, and program photos, practice will be held from 5:30-7pm.
Tuesday, March 3rd - Practice for all teams is from 3:45-5:45pm. Please note we are still working around gym conflicts. I will send out an email in the event of any changes to timing.
Wednesday, March 4th - Season Opener and home match day for all teams vs. La Jolla High School. Players with 4th period off roll should plan to be at the gym by 3:30pm.

More ticket sales today. Thank you to Geraldine Cui who has signed up to work the table from 4:15-5:45pm. We need coverage for the 5:45-7:00pm shift. I am willing to split the time with a Varsity parent so that I can watch the end of the JV match. Please review the sign-up link below. I will cover the 7:00-8:15pm shift.
Team Meals - A little more information about team meals for those who are new to the Program. Please volunteer to bring a meal for your player’s team at least once during the season. You can prepare something at home or purchase from a restaurant. To ensure variety, we ask that you review the SIGN-UP sheet to prevent duplication of items in the same week. You can partner with another family. If needed, you can donate funds and arrange to have another parent purchase and deliver on your behalf. Please see the Boys Volleyball website for some ideas and to view the sign-up sheet. Varsity meals should be delivered to the match site no later than 3:45-3:50pm, or 40-45 minutes prior to the Frosh & JV start time. Frosh & JV meals should be delivered immediately after they finish play at ~5:30pm, on most days. Please provide plates, napkins, utensils, and beverages for your team and coach (Varsity - 18 people, JV - 16 people, Frosh - 15 people).
***Please note as we begin the season, that there are Varsity players with peanut, walnut, and pecan allergies; JV players who are vegetarian and who those do not eat pork; and Frosh players with peanut and nut allergies, as well as those who do not eat meat.***
Home Game Ticket Sales - Please volunteer for a shift to sell home game admission tickets. The money raised via ticket sales and concession sales help to support expenses not specifically covered by the District. Please review the SIGN-UP sheet. Volunteer hours can be documented for your employer.
Season Donations - Please remember to submit the season donation for your player. As a reminder, the suggested amounts are $575 for Varsity & JV, and $475 for Frosh. You may pay by Square on the WAF website using this DONATION LINK. If you prefer to pay by check, please make your checks payable to “Wolverine Athletic Foundation” and include “Boys Volleyball” & your player’s name on the memo line. You may give checks to me for depositing with WAF. I am at most all matches or email/text me and I can arrange a pick-up. Your contributions are tax deductible. If you plan to request an employer match, please let me know so that I can track that it is properly deposited to Boys Volleyball when it is received by the WAF. We depend upon your donations to keep the Program running smoothly. Thank you in advance for your generosity!
Program Picnic - Our annual picnic is scheduled on Monday, March 9th from 4-6pm at Torrey Highlands Community Park. If you have not already, please SIGN-UP to bring an item to share. All family members are welcome.
Team Parents - Finally, I am pleased to introduce to you and provide contact information for the team parents for the 2026 season. Thank you for volunteering your time to Boys Volleyball!
