Freetown Ballers Volleyball team is off to Guinea today Thursday October 25th 2012 to play two friendly matches on 26th & 27th of this month and return back on Sunday October 28 , 2012.
Speaking to Awoko sports before the team’s departure, the captain of the club Ernest Johnson said, “even though this is their first international outing, they are going to Guinea to make sure that they win both matches, which will be a big boost for the team”.
These friendly matches will also help the team to identify their weaknesses which will help them to improve on their standard of play, ahead of their four-nation tournament, which is expected to take place later this year.
“That is why, as a team, we are going to put every seriousness in this
competition to test the strength of the team.
He went further to thank the National Olympic Committee, the
Basketball Association and some individuals who have come on board
to provide funding for the trip.
