(CNS Local Life): Cayman is gearing up to host the FIVB World Championship Qualifiers for Group C of the NORCECA region on 12-13 November at Clifton Hunter High School. At the tournament, the women’s national indoor volleyball team will go head to head against Bonaire, Bahamas and Guadeloupe. Cayman’s team, consisting of 13 players aged 16 to 37 years old and training since August of this year, is led by head coach Mark Ray and assistant coach Troy Alleyne of First Baptist Volleyball Club.
