Conceptualized overall as a family day and sports fest combined, the day’s hectic itinerary includes not only the muchawaited basketball and volleyball games but also the parlor games for kids and parents. Members also chipped in for the potluck lunch that transformed the event into a fiesta-like atmosphere, added with the buntings, balloons, and other decorations that RSK’s event committee has very well prepared, including an event-tailored, techie and innovative photo booth named Myphotobox of couple Fjay and Leane Awa that members took turns for their best poses and smiles.
The event started on time and kicked off with the first game of scheduled basketball games, and was between red team and yellow team, with the red victorious over the yellow warriors after a hard-fought match that really started the adrenaline release for the day. The excitement continued on the 2nd game between blue team and white team, displaying some former basketball aficionados back in action after many years of absence in the sport.

of their hand prowess. After the elimination games of the men’s volleyball, the ladies’ volleyball kicked off, and this time the crown went wild, not because of a hardcore volleyball action but seeing players themselves having more laughter than hits on the ball, a game that was really more of fun than competition.
