Keith Maxwell, captain of Canada: “We have achieved all the goals we set for ourselves, specifically the use of all our players to gain experience as a young team. We were executing the plays and although the first set was easy, the others were well fought. “
Gideon Dickson, coach of Trinidad & Tobago: “Canada taught us to play more volleyball, they were way above the net. Their game helped us to learn. We were attacking with everything, but we faced a good game from the other side.. Overall it was our best game because we could implement more strategies despite the defeat.”
Lawrence McKay, coach of Canada: “I congratulate the team of Trinidad and Tobago for their game. We were forced to work energetically after the first set and showed improvement game after game. They have good team and can be better since they showed that everyone can play in different positions with the same intensity. Our group was making good shots and our service went through good rallies that got the victory. It was difficult at the end of the third set but we took full advantage of some mistakes.”
