Christian John Castanares RSC John Mark Escoton of Leyte in 36 kgs., Ramil Casanares WP Monsour Grullo of Maasin City in 40 kgs., Romel Tunacao RSC Jeffrey Orello of Maasin City in 42 kgs. and Jeffrey Estella RSC Mark Jay Grancioso of Northern Samar in 48 kgs. Marco Pomar and Rhezon Tarona got bronze for Mandaue in 44 and 46kgs, respectively. Coaches for Team Mandaue City include Rie Munez of ALA gym and Edcel Tunacao of Phil-Aust boxing gym.
