Gilas participation in Governors Cup formally proposed
MANILA, Philippines – PBA board chairman Ramon Segismundo has formally put on the table the proposal to let Gilas Pilipinas play as the 11th team in the season-ending Governors Cup, but gave his fellow board members time to study the matter.
Segismundo, among the proponents of more window period of training for the World Cup-bound national team, hoped he could get feedback from the board by April.
In an earlier resolution, the board approved the re-amendment of the PBA season calendar giving Gilas Pilipinas a month and a half of preparation for the world joust late this year in Spain.
However, there are ongoing dialogues and discussions aimed at allowing the Nationals to play as the 11th team in the third conference.
Segismundo himself made the proposal to the board in their meeting Thursday in the PBA office in Libis, Quezon City.
