Berbice Training School which was ranked as the number two seed had a tough time with their competition in the form of Port Mourant Jaguars.

The four’s competition was a tough battle for the Berbicians although they won in straight sets as both sets went down to the wire finishing at 17-15 and 15-9.

However, in the six’s style of competition, the Training School had to come from behind to pull off the win.

Falling two sets behind at 23-25 and 16-25 to the Jaguars, the Berbicians looked deflated as the third set began before injury happen to one of the Jags players.

The injury turned the match around as Seon Glasgow of the Training School led the comeback to win the final three sets of the game at 25-21, 25-13 and 25-19.
