Team Leader of Nigeria Air Force (NAF) Rockets VC, Flying Officer Bako revealed that the men’s volleyball team will not relent in picking up valuable points in the second phase of the 2024 National Division One Volleyball League.

NAF Rockets finished first place with 22 points at the end of the 2024 National Division One Volleyball League (first phase) in Abuja.

Flying Officer Bako told www.aclsports.com that mistakes observed during the first phase will be corrected before the second phase.

She revealed that the recruitment of hungry players as well as a series of training is responsible for the exceptional performance of the team during the first phase of the league.

Bako said, “I am elated and I think we deserve to be on top of the 2024 National Division One Volleyball League (first phase) because we put in so much effort, a series of training was conducted and proper selections were done by the coaches through the proper supervision of the Director of Sports, Air Commodore Abanum Magnus.

“Losing 2-3 to LifeCamp VC is not a big deal for us because they were the champions of Division 2 and getting a point from them is a good development. Out of 9 matches, we lost only one which was against LifeCamp VC.

“I feel it was a first step and I am certain we are going to up our game when we meet in the second phase”.

Bako who doubles as the captain of the women’s team revealed that the men’s team deserves to be in the Nigeria Volleyball Premier League.

She said the results of the first phase will not be a distraction to the players.

“NAF Rockets are four points ahead of LifeCamp after the end of the first phase. It is obvious that we are going to qualify for the Nigeria Volleyball Premier League next season, we will not allow the results of the first phase to distract us as the coaches will continue to work on the lapses observed”.

Bako applauded the Chief of Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Hasan Abubakar for his support in ensuring the team attends the National Division One as well as the Director of Sports, Air Commodore Abanum Magnus for his guidance.
