The teams were commended for their sporting prowess and training regimes. ‘Both male and female team coaches must be congratulated for the excellent manner in which they prepared their teams for the tournament. It was quite evident that both teams trained well and could maintain the high standard of volleyball,’ said UKZN University Sports South Africa (USSA) Team Manager, Mr Lawrence Naidoo.
