Players 8

The Players 8 division was won by Springdale, 3-1, against Don Bosco. Lorenzo Ceniza, a player who I know anybody admires whichever side of the fence they are sitting, scored two goals, while Sabin Veloso added one.

I didn't get the scorer from DBC.

But here's a few observations.

The Players 8 finals, of all the finals I saw, was the most raucous and loud, the parents do get into the game.

I know everybody will see the glass as half full or half empty, but for me, I just hope both the parents and players involvement in the game doesnt stop in the festivals.

P.S.

I was going to start off with the Players 6 but I checked my notes here and all I see is a winner and a loser and on top, the word 'Players.' No division.

Darn.

Mike, youre right this Enzo Ceniza not only by Springdale people but by other schools as well. I believe this kid will go places if properly nurtured.

Forget the "is admired" after Enzo Ceniza in my previous post.

I know bay, for him to play competitively, he is forced to play against players older than him.

I think it is a wise decision. It will toughen up his game but looks like his a bit young when I saw him play in the U10 last saturday.

The failed U23 experiment

THE only positive thing that we can take in that loss against Timor Leste was that the U23 squad looked good in blue. And Ebong, too. The Blue-Haired fanatic whose voice we all heard on TV was fantastic. The team? The result? To be perfectly blunt it was a scrappy game from a scrappy team that seemed to treat the SEAG as a vacation, or a chance to gain more Twitter followers. (Yey, I can tweet the team apology first!) Going into the match, almost every fan who paid attention knew that we needed to win. Unfortunately, it seemed the players were operating on a different mindset.

Fair Play: The Devil's Advocate and CFA vs. CAFC

(This is my Fair Play column for Sun.Star Cebu on Feb. 6) I GOT an interesting e-mail the other day about the consequences for teams that withdraw from PFF-organized national tournaments and its corresponding sanctions. I guess, it’s time to play Devil’s Advocate. For PFF-organized events, there are four types of withdrawals—after confirming participation but before grouping or scheduling takes place, after regional finals but before grouping in nationals, after the grouping in the nationals, and in the course of the national competition.
