The Anzac Ship’s Program Office (SPO) proved too strong for the competition, taking out this year’s Fleet Base West Volleyball competition.

Held last month at HMAS Stirling, six teams battled for the annual trophy but Anzac SPO proved to be early favourites.

The weather outside was chilly but the action inside the gym was nothing short of hot with some spectacular volleyball displayed by several players.

Some games were hard fought and close while others were simply hard fought. SMFEG and The Flying Spanners (FIMA) were hard to beat while the 76er’s (JLU-W), AUSCDTFOUR and The Crankers (FIMA) rounded out the field.

The grand final saw a showdown between ANZAC SPO and SMFEG.

The SPO proved too good for the Submariners, dominating the game and winning 46-16.

LCDR Tony Young (XO HMAS Stirling) presented the winning team with the trophy and prizes.
