MILO-BEST Center clinics back online

THE long-running Milo-basketball Efficiency and Scientific Training (BEST) Center has evolved and would now conduct online clinics starting September 26.

Three online programs have been lined up by the 42-year-old training academy in partnership with the country’s leading beverage brand, Milo. These virtual clinic would be bannered by BEST Center’s staple platform of Interactive Basketball Clinic to be handled by the country’s top notch and competent coaches.

Milo Sports Executive Luigi Pumaren, BEST Center Executive Vice President Monica Jorge and BEST Center product and Milo ambassadress Ella Fajardo announced the long-awaited resumption of the premier sports academy on Tuesday in the online Philippine Sportswriters Association (PSA) Forum.

“We believe that even if we’re in this pandemic, we still have to be active, to be healthy. So we have developed programs for that,” said Jorge, daughter of the late BEST Center founder and former national coach Nic Jorge in the session presented by San Miguel Corp., Go For Gold, Milo, Amelie Hotel Manila, Braska Restaurant and Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. and powered by Smart with Upstream

Media as official webcast partner.

Pumaren, son of champion coach Franz Pumaren, who now handles Adamson University, said the resumption of the BEST Center is the latest sport to be included in the Milo Home Court program launched last August following online classes in karate and taekwondo.

“We have expanded our Milo Home Court program with the BEST Center to help and show kids that their dreams and aspirations can still be pursued,” he said.
