It’s time to take an early lunch and get ready for the weekend by making a trip to the Oleai Sports Complex this afternoon as competitors from Saipan and Guam will serve up the start of the 16th Annual Jam Attack Indoor Volleyball Tournament today.
The games get fired up at 1pm, but before any of the action gets underway, tournament organizers will be holding a meeting today at noon for all team representatives or coaches in the conference room of the Gilbert C. Ada Gymnasium, at which time all fees and rosters are due.
Last year Team Haggan of Guam emerged from a pack of six teams to take the women’s division of the 15th Annual Jam Attack in an all-Guam finals against Isa in straight sets, while the Bombers of Guam soldiered up to eke out the final two sets by two-points apiece to win the men’s division over the local No Fear squad.
The indoor war on the floor has been held in January in previous years, but due to lat year’s takeover of the local volleyball scene by NMIVA and the success of last year’s event, organizers decided to stick with the hosting in March.
The 16th Annual Jam Attack is a Northern Mariana Island Volleyball Association-sponsored event and the proceeds from the weekend will help the CNMI Indoor and Beach Volleyball teams in this summer’s Micronesian Games.
