Imagine the colors of the Primary schools and the excitement generated as the children took part in the inaugural Primary School Volleyball championships. Well if you missed the tournament, then you missed the future players of Anguilla’s national volleyball squads. Participating teams included Alwyn Allison, Adrian T Hazell, Morris Vanterpool, Orealia Kelly and the Valley Primary school.

From the first game a pensive, yet excited persona blanketed the players as each tried to rally their school to victory.

As each match progressed one could hear mothers shouting “that’s my baby”, while some dads were too busy giving their children some coaching advice. It only seemed to enhance the girls' finals between power house OKPS and AAPS. Both schools traded serves and bumps but in the end experienced Colleen “Coco” Johnson lead her team OKPS home to the championship.

The boys' finals between arch rivals VPS and RPS reignited a rivalry that is as old as both schools. Both schools were intent in trying to out set each other. However VPS with some intelligent play from several players were able to take the trophy back to the Valley.

Congratulations are extended to the OKPS and VPS for winning the inaugural Primary School Volleyball championships.
