Perlas ng Silangan cagefest all set
MANILA, Philippines — A brand-new league that is purely developmental comes to fore when the Perlas ng Silangan Basketball League comes off the wraps on July 24 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
The LGU-based league will focus on the youth not only in basketball but in developing the life skills of all participants in categories like Under-11, Under-13, Under-15, Under-17, Under-19 and Under-21.
“This is a new developmental league that will cover at least seven regions. And ang kaibahan is that kami ang lalapit sa mga kabataan. We will create a platform and reach out to everyone,” league founder Christian Ensomo told yesterday’s PSA Forum at the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex.
Ensomo said those who have confirmed in fielding teams in the different brackets are Bulacan, Caloocan, Quezon City, Manila, Parañaque and Taytay in Rizal.
For the NCR leg, games will be held at the Amoranto Stadium in Quezon City and San Andres Gym in Manila.
