Bukidnon team in Acer Cup U-23 bootfest in Davao

26 August, 2011 Mindanao, PFF, Philippine Football Tournament No comments

Visiting squads Butuan-Agusan del Norte Football Association (BANFA) and Central Mindanao University A-Kids of Musuan, Bukidnon downplayed their chances in the Acer Cup U23 Mindanao Invitational that opened Thursday at the Tionko field, Davao City.

Both teams are seeing action in the Acer bootfest for the first time.

BANFA coach Glenn Monet said their team had very short preparation for the competition.

They also got funding for their traveling expenses from the Butuan government one day before coming to Davao City.

“Our team is bannered mostly by High School players since our college players can’t be excused from their classes. This will be a very good exposure for the team. We are happy for the invitation from Davao Football Association and at the same time with the support of our government officials,” Monet said during the Davao Sportswriters Association (DSA) Forum at the Tower Inn on Thursday.

CMU coach Ronaldo Balanda said they’ve been competing in Davao FA organized events in the past but all these were on Seven-A-Side formats.

Balanda added, “We will try our best to win this 11-A-Side tournament. We have been champions in Seven-A-Side competitions but the Acer Cup will be one great challenge for our part.”

Davao Football Association (DFA) logoHe said they CMU is composed of three High School, two 14-under and one 15-year-old players while the rest are college students.

Davao FA general secretary Erwin Protacio said Medvil, Columbia and University of Mindanao (UM) Tagum are also entered in the single round-robin tournament where the team with the most number of points will be declared champion.

The event offers P10,000 cash, trophy and medals to the champion, P5,000 and medals to the runner-up. No less than Philippine Football Federation (PFF) president Mariano “Nonong” Araneta will award the prizes. The third placer will also receive medals.

Individual awards will be given to the most valuable player, best striker, best defender and best goalkeeper. (MLSA)

25 August, 2011 Grassroots Program, Mindanao, Philippine Football Tournament No comments

Host Bluejaz added the Under-14 boys title to its collection while the Davao Strikers was just too much for the opposition in the girls side at the close of the Cherifer Kids Beach Football Tournament at the Bluejaz Resort and Waterpark in the Island Garden City of Samal.

Bluejaz, which annexed the Under-12 title on Saturday, added the Under-14 boys title as the Middleton-owned squads dominated the weekend event with two titles to their name. Bluejaz beat Black Knights via shootout in the finals to win their second crown in two days.

“It’s a good sendoff to us as we go back to the States,” said Bluejaz owner Jazmin Middleton whose two kids Christian and Erin played for the Bluejaz teams in the event sponsored by Cherifer PGM 10-22 Multivitamins.

“We played seriously because we wanted to win as many games as we can. The girls played very well and they defended well,” said coach Reynalyn Ravanes after her team scored four straight wins in the eliminations.

Cherifer marketing officer for Mindanao Stef Perez awarded the trophies and giveaways along with Neil Bravo of the organizing Bravetower Promotions.

The tournament, sanctioned by the Davao Football Association (DFA), attracted a record total of 38 teams for the Under-14, Under-12 and Under-10 categories.(Press Release)
