ICBL 2007 NATIONAL TOURNAMENT

The Second Inter-Church Basketball League (ICBL) National Tournament will be on October 27-31, 2007 here in Davao City.

A total of Six (6) church-teams will be coming from Manila, Cebu City and Davao City. Representing Manila will be the Grace Gospel Church of Hans Dee and WIM-Cavite of Pastor Francisco B. Sanchez. Cebu City church-teams will be represented by Praise Cathedral of Coach Lawrence "Tata" Merced and Aces-Living Word of Coach Alfonso "Al" Solis. Our Davao City church-teams will be represented by River Of God of Pastor Blair Cuares and Grace Baptist Church of Pastor Samuel Pascual.

Pastor Gary Visitacion, ICBL National Director said that "I have met with the pastors and coaches of the different church-teams in Cebu and Manila. The church-teams that will be coming from Cebu and Manila will be very strong. I have advise our Davao teams to really prepare for this tournament. Currently, we are the defending champion."

Preparations are underway for this big event in Davao City. We are hoping that this will helped boost the interest of other evangelical churches to join ICBL in the future. As you all know already that ICBL is now a national league.

ICBL is a ministry of Philippine Challenge and sanctioned by BAP/SBP under regional director Mr. Regino "Boy" Cua.
