The DTS field in Olympia was a hive of activity on Saturday as an estimated 3 000 people turned up for the annual Windhoek Draught Volleyball for All tournament.
It was the 29th consecutive year that the tournament had taken place and once again Windhoek’s business community was out in full force as a record 228 teams entered the tournament.
According to one of the organisers, Heiko Kesselman, the emphasis was on fun while it served as a team building exercise for companies.
