Central leg of DVA school tournament deemed a success

The second leg of the ongoing school tournament hosted by the Demerara Volleyball Association (DVA) was a resounding success as central schools put on quite a show at the St Rose’s High School on Friday last.
The atmosphere was electric and the fever of competition was running high. The central leg saw the best of Marian Academy, The Bishops’ High, Queen’s College, St Rose’s High, Guyana Trust College and St Stanislaus coming out to bring their ‘A’ game.
In game one, Rose’s fended off Queen College to win 16-14, while game two saw the Bishops’ High trump St Stanislaus 25-12 and Marian defeated Guyana Trust College 22-11 in game three.
Queen’s College faced The Bishops’ High in game four and won 22-12, while in game five it was an easy win for St Rose’s against the Guyana Trust College 25-7. Game six was dominated once again by Marian Academy against the lads from St Stanislaus 22-13, as St Rose’s had the upper hand in game seven against the Bishops’ High 23-8. The final game saw Queen’s College winning against Guyana Trust College 25-11. Each game lasted 10 minutes.
The school with the most points at the end of the allotted time was declared winner.
The DVA has expressed delight at the fervour shown and the talent displayed by the youngsters, especially since for many of them were playing for the first time in a tournament.
The central leg will continue on Wednesday and the DVA is confident that the level of competition will be even higher as the schools will seek to prove they are the best.
