Participants created their own teams consisting of students from different grade levels and faculty members. However, teams were only allowed to have at most three varsity players and two faculty members playing simultaneously.
The tournament consisted of games wherein different student-teacher teams played against each other to compete for the top spot. The teams lessened through bracket elimination, with the two highest-winning groups moving on to the championship.
The event also held an exhibition game where the champion International Schools Athletics Conference (ISAC) volleyball team went against a full team of faculty members. Another special game between said faculty members and Athletics Department varsity coaches ensued.
Students that didn’t participate in the games attended to spectate and cheer for their competing classmates and friends throughout the tournament’s whole duration.
The school heads saw the event really put on display the students’ competitive spirit and active participation in sports. They mentioned that the event’s purpose of strengthening students' and teachers’ camaraderie was achieved.
