Nassau – The University of The Bahamas women’s volleyball program will host a recruitment exercise this weekend—Friday March 16 and Saturday March 17—at the Kendal Isaacs gym.  The sessions start 6:30 both nights.

Coaches and administrators will be evaluating players ahead of the upcoming volleyball season.

Women’s head volleyball coach Raymond Wilson said he’s looking for a diamond in the rough who is looking for a quality education at The University of the Bahamas.

“We want players to know that they can get the same quality education and the same sporting experience right here at home instead of abroad,” he said.

Coach Wilson said he’s looking to build the system at UB.

“We want quality players who can come in and be a part of the team chemistry that we are trying to build here,” he said.  “We need players on the court who can make serious contributions to the program and we’re looking for players who are willing to be a part of a team.”

The program will also be able to offer some scholarship opportunities for eligible players.

“We hopefully can keep some of our players local so they can not only come to UB and get an education but also play sports while you’re home,” he added.

Chartered on 10th November 2016, University of The Bahamas (UB) is a beacon for national transformation. Approximately 5,000 students are enrolled in the University of The Bahamas system which includes campuses and centers on New Providence, Grand Bahama, San Salvador and Abaco, as well as UB online education. UB’s diverse academic programs, research engagements, athletics and leadership development experiences equip our students to become global citizens in a dynamic world.
