CHRIST CHURCH Foundation are the double-crown champions of the Massy Stores Under-16 Schools’ Volleyball Championships.

On Monday, the Church Hill lasses showed little respect for hostesses Springer Memorial by crushing the Government Hill girls on their home court 25-11, 25-5.

That was a repeat of the two beatings which Foundation had inflicted on Springer during the preliminary stages of the competition.

Springer’s lone hope rested with Rashanna Thorne, who is an Under-16 national netballer and basketballer. However, Thorne proved little match for Barbados’ junior volleyballer Aaliyah Durant, who got great support from Tiara Phillips, Imani Cox, Kenise Watkins and Under-16 netballer Briana Holder.

The Foundation boys came up against St Leonard’s Boys’ in the finals after the two teams had split the two previous encounters.

In spite of a late flurry by St Leonard’s, Foundation, with more experienced players, took the game 25-15, 25-21. (KB)
