GENERAL SANTOS CITY - Some 4,000 athletes from nine school divisions in Region 12 or the Socsksargen Region will see action in this year’s Cotabato Regional Athletic Association (CRAA) meet slated on March 18 to 21 at the South Cotabato Sports Complex in Koronadal City. | |||
Deborah Adrales, Department of Education (DepEd) Region 12 director, said the regional games will formally open on Sunday with the traditional parade of the participating delegation and kickoff program, which will be graced by DepEd Undersecretary Yolanda Quijano and top local officials in the area. | |||
Region 12 covers the provinces of South Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani, North Cotabato and the cities of General Santos, Koronadal, Tacurong, Kidapawan and Cotabato. | |||
Adrales said most of the major events such as Athletics, Basketball, Boxing, Football, Swimming and Volleyball will be played at the South Cotabato Sports Complex. | |||
She said the other playing venues are Mary Mount High School for Archery; Barangay Zone 2 gym for Arnis; Smash Avenue gym for Badminton; Barangay Zone 3 gym for Basketball-Elementary; Koronadal National Comprehensive High School grounds for Chess, Softball and Table Tennis; South Cotabato Cultural Gymnasium for Gymnastics; Barangay Zone 1 gym for Sepak Takraw and Sipa; and the Provincial Capitol gym for Volleyball-Elementary (Boys and Girls). | |||
The provincial government of South Cotabato earlier accepted the hosting of the regional games for the second consecutive year. | |||
South Cotabato Gov. Arthur Pingoy Jr. said they accepted DepEd’s offer to host the CRAA meet due to its advantage to local athletes as well as the benefits it would offer to the local economy and the business sector. | |||
“This is also one way of showing off the beauty of our province and also boost the morale of our athletes being the defending champions,” Pingoy said. | |||
The governor said the local government has spent around P1 million for the hosting of the event and the improvement of the South Cotabato Sports Complex’s facilities. (PNA) | |||
