In all sports, there are game changing moments, these are defining moments of either individual prowess or when a team is just on form throughout the match, nigh unbeatable. Unfortunately, Spikers were on the wrong end of these this time around as they lost 3-1 away to a well drilled Tamworth Spartans team. Our boys put in a valiant effort and fought bravely throughout but just couldn’t close out some of the games today.
The first set was taken by the home side 25-20 but Spikers pulled the scores level with the second set at 25-22. It was anybody’s game in the third set, but Spikers were unable to maintain their momentum as Tamworth took the game 25-23. The final set to see out the match ended up at 25-18.
As the cliché goes, the better team won today, but the boys can be proud at playing with such drive and determination right until the very end. It is a performance that they can all be proud of, in particular Nigel Sinclair who was voted as Spiker’s MVP.
Every team loses, not just in volleyball, but across the entire spectrum of the sporting world. The real measure of a team is how they bounce back after a defeat and how all team members pull together to show just how resilient they are.
Nobody ever likes to lose, but losing the “right” way by never giving up and fighting until the end, that is the sort of heart that this team plays with, and guys, we’re all proud of you for it.
