The 24 teams will battle for the grand prize of N$5 000, a floating trophy and gold medals. The second-placed team gets N$3 000 and silver medals, and the third-placed team goes home with N$2 000 and bronze medals.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are no major events such as the volleyball tournament taking place and this is one of the main reasons I want to start this event for the North, to bring it closer to the people,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The tournament is open to corporates, businesses, and the public but not for registered or professional league volleyball players.<\/p>\n
Ramjit said teams have to be mixed, 50\/50 males and females.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is for amateurs, and everyone participating should have fun and enjoy themselves without being under pressure of committing a foul.\u201d<\/p>\n
He called on the public to come in big numbers and show their support on 7 May.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe entry fee will be N$20, and there will be live DJs to entertain the crowd for the day,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Northern Volleyball for All is sponsored by First National Bank and Windhoek Draught.<\/p>\n
