MOLEPOLOLE: Police VI underlined their status as a local volleyball giant after dismantling Diphatsha 3-0 in the men’s final of the JB Sports volley tournament here on Saturday.

In the process, Police VI pocketed P17, 000 as they won the tournament that has returned after years of absence. But Police VI did not have it easy against the stubborn Francistown side, and the Cops were forced to dig deep.

The victors proved strong in all departments particularly blocking, attack and a good serve. ‘Ditau’ as Police VI are affectionately known, won the first set 25-10 after taking the lead from the first whistle. Diphatsa were forced to make their first substitution towards the end of the first half, throwing in the fresh hands of Emmanuel Moala for Othusitse Mabikwa in the setting department. Tiroyaone Otimile, who joined Police VI from Kutlwano made his presence felt by punishing Diphatsa with an unstoppable spike at the beginning of the second set. Diphatsa did not lie down. Sekao Jack retaliated with a line ball taking the score to 9-5.
