The After School Programme showcase for volleyball was held at BAA gym last week by the Bermuda Volleyball Association in conjunction with the Department of Youth, Sport and Recreation.

The schools that participated were Elliot Primary, West Pembroke, Purvis and Port Royal and all the students demonstrated the various skills that they had been learning over the winter term, which started on January 8 and culminated with the showcase.

“Each school took part in a number of drills and activities which required them to use different volleyball skills such as bumping and setting,” the BVA said. “All of the students showed great progress and proficiency throughout the event and we hope that the programme has peaked these students interest in volleyball and that they continue to play in the future.

“The BVA is thankful to all the coaches who helped each week at each school as well as the volunteers that assisted with the Showcase. Our coaches included Caroline Robinson, Brady Cordeiro, Nasir Woodley, Dimitri Guglielmucci, Eron Woods, Sy McPeek, Layla Kurt, Olivia Hill and Kristen Douglas.

“Finally, special thanks to Keiran Hamilton for organising this on behalf of the BVA.”
