About me
My name is Ilan Weinberger, and I’m a Chilean volleyball player.
This year (2025) my team (Stadio Italiano) and I are preparing a lot for 2025-2026 D1 Chilean League. My goal is to play the big final with my teammates. Last year we lost on semi-finals and just after that, I promissed myself that I would do more than everything to never see a final sitting in the stands again.
With the National Team of Chile, in 2023 I competed in a South American Championship (Araguari, Brazil), where we won the bronze medal.
In 2024 I played Boy´s U17 World Championship (Sofia, Bulgaria) as the Chilean Setter. It was an experience that changed my mindset and my life as a volleyball player.
I have also played in many national championships and participate in tours with U17 and U19 National Teams.
Last year, I played D1 Chilean national league with Stadio Italiano arriving to the semi finals of the 2024-2025 Chilean season.
Nowadays, I have a symbolic contract with my team, that was awarded for my career and achievements representing the club.
Also, for the past 2 years I have been doing weights and athlete work with a personal trainer and just looking for the best way to take myself to the highest performance and be able to arrive at the top of my volleyball athlete version.
Personally, my goal is to go as far as possible with my volleyball career. I will know my limits during de process, so at the moment I´m just focussing my time on learning and polishing something new everyday.
Working hard to achieve the impressive results I desire.

Additional information
National team coaches changed me from MB to OH and, since one year ago, from OH to Setter because they saw a big potential in me as a setter (they were absolutly right). In my opinion, sport is a way of life that must love to succeded. I´m a social sciences man and also a Chilean firefighter of an engine and heavy rescue company (Quinta Compañía Cuerpo de Bomberos de Ñuñoa). I have a personal trainer, a nutritionist, a sports psychologist, and many really smart volleyball trainers but the helpful support for me is that I'm aware and confident of my life goals, so I´m just working on them. No matter what will happens with my future, I will be happy cause I´m doing all that I have in my hands and enjoying it.
