Sharks pro billiards set for launch
MANILA, Philippines — Philippine billiards got a needed shot in the arm with the holding of the first ever professional pool league this year.
Four teams representing Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao make up the initial cast competing in the inaugural Sharks Billiards Association.
Some of the finest players and rising stars of the sport will compose the pioneering teams, according to Chief Executive Officer and founder Hadley Mariano, who was joined by Chief Operating Officer Mark Orendain, and commissioner Chino Trinidad in the PSA Forum yesterday at the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex.
“Di ba ang hinihingi natin is a regionalistic flavor, so sabi ko ibigay na natin ‘yan sa tatlong regions natin – Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao,” said Trinidad in the weekly session presented by San Miguel Corp., Philippine Sports Commission, Philippine Olympic Committee, Milo, Smart/PLDT and the leading sports entertainment gateway in the country, ArenaPlus.
