CBO Basketball Tournament 2008


Today is supposed to be the opening of the CBO Basketball Tournament 2008. However, the rain confined the group within the Majangdong High School Corridors. The referees instead discussed the rules and regulations to be imposed and 'drawed lots' the sequence of the game.

This year's participating teams are Mabuda, Bontoc, FBI, Bugias, Kabayan, Otucan, Sabangan, Camp 6, Data, Guinzadan and Bayabas. What happened to the Tadian Team, the Defending Champion? They back-out! Oh why, oh why? ... you don't like to relinguish the trophy or afraid that the speculations that by your winning last year is just a TSAMBA? hehehehe, joke joke joke...

The referees are members of BAP (Basketball Association of the Philippines) namely Gilbert, Dante Bor-as and Jay Panaga. Marshall Martinez will man the table.

The presence of Fr. Peter Choi is highly appreciated. Also present is his staff Choi Woong Jae who has already adopted an igorot name, Banglayan. Fr. Choi will be donating 5 NCAA basketballs next Sunday, the opening of the tournament.


Thanks Fr. Choi!

Igorota Song

Help us promote this Song. Super ganda ang lyrics and the melody, nahohomesick tuloy ako! Atlast the song is finally uploaded sa youtube. Most people from Kias know this song way back 1990's because this song was introduced by DAnny Tawanna who was the composer. Jun was so lucky that Danny gave him all his compositions to record. Danny is likewise lucky to have Jun record his songs. For everybody's info Danny suffered from a stroke and is now living in Nueva Viscaya. Just don't know if Jun pushed his plan of having Danny in his audience when he launched this album. (rainne68)
