Muharraq last night clinched the bronze medals in the 2021/2022 Bahrain Volleyball Association (BVA) Cup. Muharraq secured third place in the annual senior men’s competition after defeating their counterparts from Al Najma in a five-set thriller 3-2 (25-15, 19- 25, 25-20, 21-25, 15-11).

The victors were spearheaded in the contest by the star player Fadhel Abbas. Following the match, Muharraq’s players and team staff were presented their medals in a podium ceremony by BVA board member Abdulredha Ashouri in the presence of BVA and club officials.

Muharraq had to settle for the game for third after losing in the semi-finals to Dar Kulaib, while Najma bowed to Al Ahli, who are the defending champions in the national league. Dar Kulaib and Ahli meet for the right to claim the gold medals and the coveted BVA Cup. The final has yet to be scheduled by the BVA.
