The Guyana Volleyball Federation (GVF) took the thrilling action of beach volleyball to the Number 63 Beach, East Berbice, Corentyne on Easter Monday.
The lush sands of the popular Berbice beach fondly welcomed nine volleyball teams. Two squads from Number 47 Village Challengers, two teams from Black Bush Polder, two teams from Number 52 Survival and three teams from Port Mourant Training Centre tested their skills against each other in anticipation of copping lucrative prizes.
The winning team receive their spoils
One of the notable occurrences for the day’s activities was Andy Rohoman and Helond Singh narrowly defeating Tyrone Farley and Levi Nedd (Jr) 10-8, in a game that had to be reduced owing to the continuously rising high tide.
Additionally, the Director of Sports, Christopher Jones, on behalf of the National Sports Commission (NSC), handed over a cheque to GVF President Levi Nedd in the presence of Daniel Harricharan, the Association’s treasurer. The cheque was a symbol of the NSC’s massive support of the Inter-Guiana Games tournament in French Guiana next month, in which local teams will be participating.
As such, the NSC wished the best of luck to the two teams (Male & Female) who are currently in preparation for the regional tournament, urging them to be good ambassadors and represent Guyana to their best ability.
