Abuja, Nigeria, April 3, 2025 – Host Nigeria Customs open the championship with a convincing 3-0 (25-18, 25-17, 25-22) win over Mayo Kano Evolutions.
NCS took the first set 25-18 with quick movement and distribution of the ball around the court. The home team played some excellent defence on the backcourt to save a number of balls. It was not difficult for the host in the second set contesting every point. A number of hitting and serving mistakes from both teams didn’t change how close it was. NSC took the last few points to win 25-17.
The crowd went wild in support for Customs. The support was even more of a boost for the Nigerians playing in front of their First Lady at some point and the Comptroller General throughout.
NCS scored early and led for the set, playing some smart points. Consistent recycling of the ball led to well-earned points winning the third set with a tight margin of 25-22 win.
