    Prime Volleyball League: This Team Can Surprise A Lot Of People, Says Bengaluru Torpedoes Captain Matt West

    By IANS News September 29, 2025 • 14:12 PM View: 367
    Prime Volleyball League: American setter Matt West, the newly appointed captain of the Bengaluru Torpedoes, is prepared to lead the team in the upcoming fourth season of the Prime Volleyball League, which starts in Hyderabad on October 2. Hailing from Seattle, Washington, the soon-to-be 32-year-old has accumulated over ten years of professional experience across nine countries.

    He has earned several league titles and medals, including playing in the Bundesliga, as well as in the Netherlands, the Czech Republic, and Finland. Volleyball is a family tradition as his mother competed for Peru at the 1980 Moscow Olympics, and his father is also a former player.

    Speaking about his new role, West said, “At this stage of my career, I’m less focused on proving my worth and more on enjoying the game and giving back. India feels like the right place for that; the athletes here are so talented, and the influence I can have as captain is greater than it would be in Europe. With David Lee guiding us as coach, and me leading on court, our goal isn’t just about chasing wins but about controlling what we can, improving every day, and building something meaningful together.”
