Delta Sports Complex, Thursday, February 16, 2012 — Chong Boon Secondary took home the honour of being South Zone champions after they beat Fairfield Methodist 2-0 (25-17, 25-15) in the South Zone B Division Boys’ Volleyball Final.

Chong Boon had been touted as the surprise of the season after a series of impressive victories. They had already caused heads to turn after finishing in third place at last year’s Under-16 Championships and they certainly brought their fine form into this season.

Chong Boon stamped their dominance early in the first set and raced to a 7-2 lead. Fairfield struggled to reply to Chong Boon’s attacks, watching their opponents race further to a 20-13 lead.

At this point, Fairfield Methodist mustered a breakthrough to earn several points. However, they could not hold off Chong Boon’s advances as the latter took the score to 23-16 after the Chong Boon #9 fired off an ace.

They then reached set point after the Fairfield #13 spiked out from the opposite corner.

Despite losing the next point, Chong Boon subsequently finished off the set with a spike from the outside.

In the second set, Chong Boon continued on their rampage as they again raced off to a lead. Despite Fairfield’s valiant attempts, they could not do anything to stop Chong Boon from taking match point. Chong Boon sealed the set 25-15 to take the set and the title.
