But on matchday 2, Kada Kings bounced back from a set down to beat Niger Brass 3-1(27-29, 25-20, 25-14, 25-20) while Nigeria Army managed to pull off a win over Offa Volleyball Club 3-2 (25-22, 20-25, 23-25, 25-21,15-11) in a highly competitive match.
Speaking after the game, head coach of Kada Kings, Sani Mohammed said the coaching crew had to re-strategise against Niger Brass to get the desired result.
Mohammed confirmed that losing to Nigeria Correction Boys was disastrous but had positive lessons.
“Our first match was unfortunate because the team that defeated us is not up to the standard of Niger Brass but we lost.
“The team drew a new strategy and came out fully to face Niger Brass. During the training session in the morning, the coaching crew motivated the boys and you can see the result against Niger Brass; we also noticed the weak points of our opponent and capitalised on it”.
Day 3 fixtures will see Niger Brass go against Sunshine Spikers, ABM of Katsina will take on Nigeria Correction Boys (Prisons) while Kada Kings will clash with Offa VC.
