KAVC Duo Ayo Innocent and Ogusul Isaac impress at the Zone V beach volleyball.

KAVC’s dynamic pair, Ayo Innocent and Ogusul Isaac, are flying the Ugandan flag high at the CAVB Zone V Beach Volleyball Championship in Bujumbura, Burundi. After a tough opening match where they fell 0–2 to Burundi’s Manariyo Floric and Gakiza Don Car (17–21, 19–21), the Ugandan duo bounced back in style. Today, they put on a commanding performance to defeat Tanzania’s Saidi Alhaji and Selemani Hassani in a hard fight — 14–21, 21–17, 15–09 — showcasing resilience, teamwork, and the fighting spirit that define our club. Their recovery win keeps Uganda’s hopes alive in the championship as they continue to battle for a podium finish against the region’s best. KAVC and the entire Ugandan volleyball community are proud of Ayo and Isaac’s performance. We wish them continued success as they carry our colors in Bujumbura.

Coach’s corner: advice for productive player development

At KAVC, we believe that volleyball is more than just a game — it’s a lifelong journey of discipline, learning, and growth. In this edition of Coach’s Corner, we share key advice from our seasoned coaches on what it takes to develop into a well-rounded and productive player.

1. Master the Fundamentals

No amount of flair can substitute for solid basics. Good footwork, consistent passing, and proper technique form the backbone of any great player. “We always remind our athletes that doing the simple things well is what wins games,” says Coach Tom.

2. Be Coachable

Talent opens the door, but attitude keeps you on the team. Players who listen, adapt, and are open to feedback develop faster and become team assets. “Coaches don’t expect perfection—they expect progress,” a veteran KAVC coach emphasizes.

3. Play with Purpose

Whether it’s a routine drill or a championship match, players should approach every session with intent. Goal-setting, self-awareness, and reflection are habits we encourage at all levels of play.

4. Stay Committed to Fitness

Your body is your most important tool. Off-court conditioning, proper nutrition, and injury prevention are just as critical as on-court drills. A fit athlete is a reliable athlete.

5. Be a Student of the Game

Watch matches. Ask questions. Learn from both your peers and your opponents. Understanding tactics, reading plays, and making smart decisions are what elevate good players to great ones.

As we prepare for the 27th NSSF KAVC International Volleyball Championship this September, our coaching team remains committed to guiding athletes who are ready to put in the work.
