“We are grateful to the Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ogalla for his support for the team, he is the brain behind this success. The immediate past coordinator, Commodore Aliyu Pindar (RTD) began the revival journey of the volleyball team and I am elated to have completed the success story.

Pindar said, “It gives me great joy that a club less than three years have emerged champions of the women’s volleyball premier league. If you look at the crop of players paraded by CNS Spikers, they are young players who have trained together.
“I want to commend the Chief of Naval Staff for supporting the teams. The world should watch out for the men’s team as they play in next year’s Nigeria Volleyball Premier League”.
