Who gets to go to San Francisco?

The Greater Cebu Sports Organizing Committee is planning to send a football team to the International Children's Games in San Francisco this July.

The target? The Cebu City Under-15 team that won the Philippine Olympic Festival last year.

The catch?  The ICG only features a six-a-side tournament, the whole team can't go.

Like I said, who gets to go to San Francisco?

Hi, I'm not really sure. But the ICG is for players 15 and under, it will be in july this year, I'm not sure the cutoff year will be 2008, or they will stretch it a year.

If you want to know, the ICG has a website.

thanks. it's no big deal. just got a deluge of text messages asking why - hehehe.

also, got approached by people connected with GCSOC. don't think it (ICG participation) will happen. too many political hurdles-more difficult to solve than financial ones.

The heavy rains spoiled the debut of defending champions Don Bosco College yesterday, cutting short the match between DBC A(?) and Bright. Hopefully, it will be a sunny Sunday. P.S. It will be interesting to note, how DBC divided its teams for the U12.

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.
