Milo BEST Clinics in Cebu

The Milo-sponsored BEST (Basketball Efficiency and Scientific Training) basketball clinic makes its annual trip to Cebu this summer with two runs to be held on separate dates. This was announced by BEST Cebu Tournament and Clinic Director Rico Navarro.

The first run will be from March 30-April 4 at the Capitol Parish Gym. The second run will be held from May 18-23. “We decided to have two runs of the clinic so as to give Cebuanos as many chances as possible to enroll in the clinic,” BEST Cebu Coordinator Rico Navarro said.

The BEST Center program is divided into four levels. Level 1 focuses in dribbling and ballhandling fundamentals. Level 2 focuses on shooting. Level 3 is on individual defense while Level 4 is for individual offense. The clinic hours will 8am-12 pm or 1-5pm, depending on the Level in which one is enrolled. All students start at Level 1 and move up at each succeeding clinic.


Ball-handling and Dribbling basics are the main focus of Level 1 with extensive drills for all.

The pioneering BEST Center, which was founded 31 years ago, is one of the country’s longest running basketball clinics that was started by Coach Nic Jorge. It is the pioneer in using the scientific methods of training, and has produced thousands of graduates since it started. Among its graduates include current basketball stars like Enrico Villanueva, Larry Fonacier, Joseph Yeo, Paolo Mendoza, Renren Ritualo and TY Tang, and former PBA stars Benjie Paras and Jun Limpot.

BEST is also the organizer of the annual SBP/Passerelle twin basketball tournaments, the most successful and followed basketball tournament for the youth with a nationwide scope.
