Bogor’s branch of the Indonesian Volleyball Federation has welcomed BSI Flash as more than a school tournament. The competition, for high-school students and their equivalents, is being presented as a route for young players toward national volleyball and potentially the Proliga.

Gill urged the young athletes to train hard, never give up and produce their best performances in every match.
