Schools’ volleyball tournament schedule is announced

The 2019 season again promises to be quite exciting with two full school volleyball tournaments.

The Port Shepstone Volleyball Association schools’ volleyball committee has released its tournament schedule for 2019 following their annual committee meeting held last week.

The following were unanimously re-elected to serve on the organising committee: Jason Govender (chairman), Devi Govender (secretary), Leena Nandalal (treasurer), Prenesen Naidoo (PRO) and Dennis Moodley (chief tournament director).

Teddy Moodley, Ivan Govender, Clinton Pillay and Johnny Rajoo were also co-opted onto the committee.

An invitation to join was extended to other teachers who wish to serve on the committee, whose main task is to draw up fixtures as well as co-ordinate the school KO tournaments for the year.

The divisions for the 2019 season will be U12 and U14 in the primary school section, while the high school divisions will be U16 and O16.

All interested primary and secondary schools (both new and affiliated) are welcome to enter all tournaments.

Entry fees remain R150 per team. Schools can enter as many teams as they wish, providing they can afford the total entry fee.

The 2019 season again promises to be quite exciting with two full school volleyball tournaments scheduled for Saturday, February 16 and Saturday, May 1 as well as the Inter-District tournament.

The unanimous re- election of the highly experienced Jason Govender as chairman is likely to bring enormous benefits to local schools in terms of coaching and development clinics in view of his representation at district, provincial and national school sports structures.

The closing date for confirmation and submission of schools entries for each tournament is a week before the tournament date.

As all tournaments are pre-entry events, no late entries will be accepted.

All schools must attach a passport sized photo to a copy of each team member’s birth certificate or ID document.
