Former Kenya Volleyball Federation League champions General Service Unit and Co-operative Bank both started their 2017 season campaign on a winning note as the league served off at Kamukunji Grounds, Nyeri County, yesterday.

GSU beat Mombasa Prisons in straight sets of 25-23,25-18 and 25-18 same as the bankers who defeated Vihiga County 3-0 (25-18,25-17,25-11). “It is a good start for us.

The boys played well very and deserved the victory. We are working on the transition with the hope of reclaiming the title. We had prepared for Prisons Kenya but unfortunately they didn’t turn up,” said GSU Team Manager Nicholas Kimeli.
