Victory Seekers met BDF VI after a morale-boosting victory against wasteful Prisons. However, it was always going to be a mountain to climb achieving a win immediately after playing such an energy sapping see-saw battle that lasted for one hour 20 minutes. However, it was the Seekers who notched the first point in the opening set before the towering attacker, Dingwe cancelled out with an easy slam, but Boikanyo Majafe's point winning volley put the Seekers in front soon afterwards, as if to prove they still had some boxes of energy in them. However, Dingwe's impressive display by the net would soon stretch the lead to 10-2, before BDF VI's pin point serves by Theko Baruti and Tiro Loatile saw BDF VI stretching the lead to 13-5.
