Time to shine for Sunday beach volleyballers

With the CIVF Sunday beach volleyball league nearing its end, players brought their A-games with them last Sunday.

Having won the B Division for the past two weeks, Just Da Tip was looking to defend their title for the third week in a row on Sunday, 5 March. As pool play got underway it became clear that the pressure was too much and they failed to make it into the top four.

The Ultimates and I’d Hit That on the other hand emerged from regular pool play unscathed with a spotless record of 3-0. They would go on to face Sandy’s Angels and Notorious DIG in the semis for their chance to make it to the finals.

I’d Hit That and Sandy’s Angels battled it out in a long-winded match, and I’d Hit That held their own narrowly earning their spot in the finals with a score of 22-20. Meanwhile on the other court, the Ultimates proved they were the ultimate team by annihilating Notorious DIG 21-16.

In the finals, the top two teams of the competition, I’d Hit That and The Ultimates, went head to head and I’d Hit That beat The Ultimates 21-19. Unprotected Sets will be returning to the C Division for the final week.

That Ace Though and Kiss our Aces dominated the C Division as they both finished top of their pools with a 3-0 record. Is it In? secured their spot in the semis with a 2-1 record, and Poppin’ Volleys just barely managed to make it to the semis as it boiled down to point differential due to a 3 way tie.

The two top teams faced off in the semis and That Ace Though came out on top beating Kiss Our Aces 21-15. Is it in? found themselves no longer in the running for the finals as they were demolished in the semis by Poppin’ Volleys 21-8.

Going into the finals That Ace Though was over confident with four consecutive wins under their belt. They under estimated their opponents, and as a result Poppin Volleys rose to the occasion destroying That Ace Though 21-7.

The League Finals will be played Sunday, 12 March at Seven Mile Public Beach.
