Kamuzu Barracks\u2019 reign in the Central Region continued on Saturday when they were crowned champions of C2K volleyball pre-season tournament after beating Blue Eagles 3-1 at Lilongwe Community Centre Court.<\/p>\n
Despite missing some key players due to work commitments, the soldiers showed determination and hunger for success.<\/p>\n
It was not one of their best performances, but the soldiers still grabbed their second trophy of the season, just a month after winning First Merchant Bank (FMB) volleyball tournament.<\/p>\n
In a third-place play-off, Lilongwe Spikers defeated Don Bosco 3-0 at the same venue.<\/p>\n
For being champions, Kamuzu Barracks received K150,000, a trophy plus gold medals, whereas Eagles got K100, 000 and medals.<\/p>\n
Third-place Spikers pocketed K50, 000 and medals.<\/p>\n
KB Captain, Mark Mangani, admitted that they did not deserve to win the tournament.<\/p>\n
\u201cEagles gave us a good game. Thank God that we are the champions again. We won just by chance as we did not play well,\u201d Mangani said.<\/p>\n
C2K sponsored the tournament to the tune of K600, 000. The competition offered the teams an opportunity to fine-tune before the 2016 season, which officially started on Saturday.<\/p>\n
C2K Director, Harold Nyadani-Chaika, pledged to come back with the sponsorship next year, saying he was impressed with the organisation of the pre-season event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
