On February 28-29, 2020, our team was on the 14th Bialowieza Volleyball Work Tournament - the Cup of the Head of the Białowieża Commune.

The tournament was organized by: the Head of the Białowieża Commune, the UKS Olimpijczyk "Białowieża Board and the Management of the School and Preschool Complex in Białowieża. It started on Friday, 28.02.2020 in the afternoon. A record number (as many as 16 teams!) Took part - five teams in the "advanced" group and eleven in the "amateur" group.

The Forest Research Institute in the "amateur" group was represented by a team composed of: Jerzy M. Gutowski, Michał Wróbel, Bartosz Nowakowski, Marta Ostasz, and also a member of the ForBioSensing team Agata Sałachewicz. On the first day, representatives of the Forest Research Institute won both matches played. On the second day, the IBL team lost only in the final match, losing 0: 2 to the Białowieża Commune Office.

The tournament was at a very high level. Ultimately, the Border Guard Post won in the professional teams category. In the amateur teams category, the first place was taken by the team of the Bialowieza Commune Office, the second place was taken by the team of the Forest Research Institute, and the third was the "Jerzyk" company from Białowieża.

After the sports part, the organizers of the event invited participants to an integration meeting around the campfire, where they could share their impressions, comments and common emotions and develop tactics for next year's edition of the tournament.

ForBioSensing once again supported the Lottery, which was an additional attraction for the gathered audience during volleyball games. The project's promotional gadgets as well as the project calendar were included in specially prepared packages.

We thank the organizers for the opportunity to participate in this unique event.

 See you next year!
