The Men’s volleyball season is well underway as the second half of the season has begun. Although all the matches have been assigned, there have been weekday matches and Saturday tournaments that officials need to be replaced for whatever reason. Please make sure that if you are NOT available to work that you BLOCK those dates in the arbiter. If Joe, Tom or myself call you last minute because you are showing “available” than we expect you to be able to go wherever a match or tournament needs covered. Thank you to the officials who have come through last minute and covered matches, it is appreciated!
