THE Berbice Volleyball Association (BVA) received ten Mikasa MVA200 volleyballs from the Guyana Volleyball Federation during a handing-over ceremony which was held on the GTM hard court in New Amsterdam, prior to the start of the BVA’s Trophy Stall competition that was played last Sunday.
In the absence of GVF president Lennie Shuffler, vice-president and national coach Levi Nedd handed over the balls to BVA secretary Errol Chase in the presence of BVA president and clubs affiliated to the association.
Over the past year and a half, the BVA has been the most vibrant of the GVF’s affiliates and lack of proper competition balls had curtailed the playing of competitions and hampered the preparation of numerous teams.
However, the acquisition of such balls will now enable teams in Berbice to train harder to improve their game and the BVA expressed gratitude to the GFV for the balls and hoped that such balls will be available more regularly.
