Tanduay Athletics Cebu spikefest up

-

THE Philippine Volleyball Federation-Tanduay Athletics U18 Girls “Series in Ur Cities’ Volleyball Cebu leg gets under way on Sunday at the Cebu City Sports Institute Gym.

Eight school teams have confirmed their participat­ion in the tournament held in close coordinati­on with the Cebu City Sports Council.

The teams are Tejero Night High School, Oppa Night High School, Lahug Night High School, Basak Night High School, Inayawan Night High School, Abellana National School, Guba Night High School and Oppa National High School. The organizers are bringing their own set of PVF duly accredited, licensed and loyal officials in an effort to cleanse their ranks in preparatio­n for the federation’s reinstatem­ent as the country’s national sports associatio­n for volleyball.

The PVF ranks have been tainted with turncoats and opportunis­ts who jumped ship or maintained dual personalit­ies to enjoy the benefits of being duly accredited and licensed referees of the PVF which have been a standard requiremen­t for DepEd teachers.

A full complement of officials from the PVF affiliated Davao Volleyball Associatio­n of Davao City headed by Daks Yambao will be flying in on Saturday.

Compliment­ary drinks and lunch will be provided to all participan­ts and officials.

The Cebu City Sports Council is providing the packed lunch while PVF, headed by Edgardo “Tito Boy” Cantada, is sourcing Cebu’s famous and well loved lechon. Fruit drinks will be provided free of charge by Tanduay Athletics.

The tournament is free of charge.
