DSI Supersport School Volleyball begins on June 18

The Sri Lanka Volleyball Federation (SLVF) has extended the deadline to accept applications for the 20th DSI Supersport School Volleyball Championship to the 15th of June 2022. The extension comes as a result of the postponement of the annual event due to the prevailing economic and social turbulence..

Earlier this year, Sri Lankas number one footwear brand DSI, together with SLVF and the Ministry of Education, came forward to organize this years edition of the championship, which was launched in February 2022 at a press conference held at Hotel Nippon, Colombo.

Accordingly, the first series of matches will be held on June 18 and 19, 2022 in the Kegalle District of the Sabaragamuwa Province as well as the Moneragala District in the Uva Province, while another match will be held in the Badulla District of the Uva Province on June 18, 19 and 20.

Commenting on the extension of the deadline, D. Samson & Sons (Pvt) Ltd. Managing Director  Thusitha Rajapaksa stated: Sri Lanka is presently faced with a very uncertain, turbulent time, where corporates as well the general public are clouded as to where the country is headed. Due to this, we had to collectively decide to postpone one of the most anticipated school sporting events of the year.

Therefore, DSI, the Sri Lanka Volleyball Association, and the Ministry of Education have decided to extend the application deadline, giving a glimmer of hope to school children who still want to be a part of the 20th edition of the DSI Supersport School Volleyball Championship.
