Thirsty Inter Call Center Day One

PEOPLESUPPORT and Sykes B went undefeated in the first day to take a share of the lead in the Thirsty Inter Call Center Football Tournament at the SVD field.

Sykes B, led by captain David de Madrazo, defeated sister team, Sykes A, 1-0 on Glen Escarayon's lone goal, and then fought to a scoreless draw against Peoplesupport for their 1-1 win-draw record.

Escarayon tapped in a pass from Cloyd Golez, who has played for Negros in the Adidas Under-19 national finals, for the lone goal of the match.

Aside from Madrazo, other members of the Sykes B team are Aurelio Quidlat, Tim Cunanan, Cloyd Golez, Emman Rivera, Mark Lyndon Limpag, Vince Rendon, Josephe Ray Vasquez, Kenneth Agreda, Mark Yap and Marlu Martinez.

On the other hand, Peoplesupport kept things interesting after scoring a 1-0 win over Sykes A, to take a share of the number one spot on one win and a draw.

Sykes A is at last place with two losses. Sykes A members are Ivan Palatolon, Arthur Peralta, Carl Umabong, Greggy Cordova, Sean Obeso, John Paul Atillo, Justin Arrieta, Rommel Balintag, Windstone Arranchado, Sherwin Arnade Mark Gestole and Amiel Canete

After yesterday's matches, the teams will go at it again in their second round robin after two teams backed out of the event.

"We extended it to a double round robin because Convergys and Etelecare backed out. They will play the same matches and the top two team will play in the championships next Sunday," said organizer Neil Montesclaros.

The champion team will receive a trophy and medals, while organizers are still mulling whether to hand out individual awards.

Aside from the football tournament, Montescalros and Thirsty are also considering putting up a viewing party in the semifinal and final matches of the 2006 World Cup, which opens in Germany next month.

many call center employees participating in the tournament are former players - not the ordinary weekend warrior. a recalled hearing that at least one of the players on the field must be a lady. did this push thru ?

yes, naa jud at least usa ka babaye na player. daghan kama-o modula nila, daghan pud og bag-o lang nikat-on, so maayo ni nga development to promote the sport. ang people support murag nag-hire gani og coach. ang sykes kay wala.

every sunday ni ga-practice ang sykes for months now sa SVD. makigdula ni silag "walk-ins" --- mga taga don-bosco, kamputhaw, mga iranian, taga ramos --- to improve their skills. compared last year, dakog improvement ang sykes. (ang people support medyo gahi na daan sa ilang level. sa SVD ni sila ga-praktis sa una, karon sa Sandtrap na).

ambot kung nganong ni-backout ning taga convergys ug etelecare. gaya-ya lang ni sila. sayang kaayo. nasubrahan sigurog trabaho. morag wala ni silay life da.
