PhilBoxing.com




EVERYTHING is now set for the staging of the 3rd Manny Pacquiao Sports Challenge (Mindanao-wide) on December 4 to 8 in General Santos City.

?We?re expecting more than 1,000 participants from the different local government units of Mindanao,? said Gensan City Administrator Atty. Arnel Zapatos yesterday.

The different events are boxing, basketball, volleyball, kickball, billiards, darts, badminton, tennis, table tennis and shooting.

?Except for boxing, all the participants are government employees,? said Zapatos.

Seeing action are the LGUs of Iligan, Tagum, Butuan, Davao del Sur, Davao Oriental, Mati, Sarangani, Valencia of Bukidnon, Tawi-Tawi and General Santos City.

Davao City is only joining in the amateur boxing competition set at the Robinson?s Place.

There is also a separate division for the seven municipalities of Sarangani Province ? Glan, Alabel, Malapatan, Malungon, Maasim, Maitum and Kiamba.

?Congressman Manny Pacquiao?s purpose for this multi-sports event is to unite all the LGUs in Mindanao,? said Zapatos.
It is organized by the MP Sports Association (MPSA) with
Sarangani Rep. Emmanuel Pacquiao as the chairman.

Gensan Mayor Ronnel Rivera is the vice-chairman while Zapatos is the Commissioner for Operations.

The other commissioners are Board Member Elmer de Peralta (Finance), Board Member Cornelio Martinez Jr. (LGU), Kag. Dominador Lagare III (External Affairs), Atty. Anthony Dinnes Pantua (Grievances & Protest) and Brgy. Kap. Lorelie Pacquiao (Administration & Audit).

?We hope to invite also already the Visayas region next year,?said Zapatos. --- LITO DELOS REYES
