All games are played in our big and small gyms after school during the week. A single-elimination tournament is held during the final week of the season and the top two teams will compete in the Intramural Girls Volleyball Championship game on the following Monday morning at a special school assembly in front of our student body. Parents and families of championship players are welcome to attend this always-exciting game. Typically, between 125-150 girls participate in Intramural Volleyball.
8th Grade Travel Team: 8th graders who wish to play at a more competitive level and represent Westview against other schools may sign up to play on the 8th Grade Travel Team in addition to Intramurals. Players are divided into an A team and a B team based on ability and must commit to additional early morning practices before school four to five times per week.
