Let the volleyball action begin

Phillipsburg, Sint Maarten Friday 5th August 2016: With the Olympic opening ceremony taking place in Brazil, Anguilla, Bermuda, the British Virgin Islands and host St. Maarten,   will clash in round one of the Group A leg of the FIVB, Word Cup qualifiers.  There is plenty at stake as the top two teams advance to the second round of the World Cup Qualifiers. The young high fliers of the teams will test the defenses of their opposition and the resilience of their defenses.

Team Bermuda and the British Virgin Islands are eager to display their new look, as they come with a mixture of youth and experience.  Anguilla, sporting a similar blend will also throw its hat in the ring for the honors of advancing.  However, host country St. Maarten, will probably be the favourite to take the title. 

The thundering slams and brilliant digs will keep the viewing audience of St. Maarten glued to the auditorium as this tournament promises to be very exciting event.
