The Head of Sports, Nigeria Customs Service, Samuel Onikeku, said the NCS team’s unbeaten run is a first in Nigerian volleyball history.
Onikeku said the women’s team won all 20 matches across both phases of the league to clinch the title in emphatic fashion.
“The women won 10 matches in the first phase and another 10 in the final phase. This has never happened before in Nigerian volleyball.
“This is the first time a women’s team has gone through an entire league season unbeaten. We are extremely proud of this feat,” said Onikeku.
He expressed delight with the overall performance of the NCS teams, noting that both the women’s and men’s sides exceeded expectations.
Onikeku said the men’s team also defeated all opponents in the second phase to finish second overall.
“We are thrilled that we have made the Comptroller-General of Customs and the entire Nigeria Customs Service proud. This is a major improvement from last season when the men finished sixth. It shows clear progress.”
