Azkals kiss finals hopes goodbye, fall to Lions 1-nil

After skipping the opening ceremony, Vice President Sara Duterte showed up at the culmination program of the week-long Palarong Pambansa 2024 at the Cebu City Sports Center yesterday to thank all the people behind the success of the biggest annual national sporting event.

At least seven records supposedly established in the track event in the athletics competition of the recently concluded 64th Palarong Pambansa will go down the drain after the organizers of the biggest annual national sporting event refused to recognize following the validation of a third party surveyor that the P52 million newly-refurbished rubberized track oval of the Cebu City Sports Center fell short of the 400-meter international standard.

Central Visayas sealed its campaign with a golden performance at the pitch as the host region settled for fifth place overall at the end of the 64th Palarong Pambansa on Tuesday, July 16.

The Don Bosco Cebu Alumni Basketball League (DBCABL) selection outclassed the Magis team of Sacred Heart Ateneo Alumni Basketball Athletic Association, 75-66, to emerge as champions of the inaugural SHAABAA Inter-Alumni Invitational Games on Sunday, July 14, at the Benedicto College gymnasium along A.S. Fortuna Street in Mandaue City.

A string of sports-related activities will spice up the Kinabayo Festival, a yearly observance of Dapitan City’s fiesta in honor of their beloved patron Saint James the Greater next week.
