The NSSF Volleyball League 2015 season got served off over the weekend at the MTN Arena and MUBS Nakawa grounds with games played in all League divisions.
In the Men’s Serie A action, defending champions KAVC stepped out fresh in their new League kit courtesy of SN Brussels to take on 2011 champions Nkumba University in a thrilling match that saw all five sets being played.
Nkumba drew first blood as they won the first set but went ahead to lose the next two sets before winning the fourth to force a decisive.
It is at this point that youngster Okello Daudi stood tall driving his team to victory. Nkumba tried to relay on youngster Malinga Kathbart and Tanzanian Mari Jackson in the absence of high scoring centre player Sammy Kagai who was nursing an injury.
In the ladies category, Sport-S women defeated old timers KCCA 3-1 in match that could see the Sports Organizing Commission (SOC) overturn the result due to Sport-S fielding an ineligible player. Sport-S fielded Rwandan setter Yvette Igihozo despite cautions from the Head of SOC Mr. Juma Osunge.
“Sport-S manager told me she has no other setter to use for this match but she is aware of the penalties associated with fielding an ineligible player” Osunge said.
Yvette Igihozo requires to complete an International Transfer from her former Club APR to allow her take part in the NSSF Volleyball League.
Defending champions Vision Volleyball Camp were 3-1 victors over Ndejje University despite putting up an average performance.
VVC who struggled right from the first set lost it to Ndejje University and were lucky to win the second after Ndejje setter Winnie Nakabuubi faltered with a service at set point.
VVC managed to exploit the inexperience of some of the Ndejje players to pick up points although Ndejje responded with good solid blocks.
This was the first meeting this year for the two teams since last year’s play-offs.
