WE will bounce back for sure.
These were the words spoken by AFP Cavaliers Head Coach Sonny Manucat as his side vows to bounce back in the UNTV Cup Faceoff.
“Many of our officers are affected by what is happening in Mindanao. Most of the time, two of our players are in the conference and came late because of the Marawi incident. We will be completed next Sunday. For sure, 100 percent, we will bounce back,” said Manucat.
The Cavaliers are looking ahead to meet at 3:30 p.m. the BOC Transformers led by Bureau of Customs Commissioner, Nicanor Faeldon, at the Pasig City Sports Arena.
Last Sunday, in a game against the PNP Responders, Commissioner Faeldon made 14 points, 9 rebounds and 3 steals.
The Bureau of Customs chief, who supports Kuya Daniel Razon’s charity basketball league, prepares for each ball game in order to extend more help to the Filipinos.
“Commitment natin sa mga kasangbahay saka public service ito so responsibilidad bilang head of office na itaguyod natin yung magandang programa ng UNTV na ihatid itong programa sa ating mga kababayan,” Commissioner Faeldon said.
He added that the League of Public Servants does not only foster camaraderie among government agencies through basketball, but also unity in charity.
“Hindi lang BOC supporters, kungdi supporters ng lahat ng team, suportahan natin. Napakagandang programa nito, magpatuloy tayo. Let’s make this events very happy, tapusin natin. Win or lose, lalaro tayo,” Commissioner Faeldon encouraged.
The games will be aired on UNTV with live streaming via untvweb.com.
