Backed by Smart Communications, the MYBL-Cebu will kick off with its quarterfinal round games in all age groups.

In Division 1’s Under 12 age group, top seeds Don Bosco Technical College Cebu and One on One-A drew automatic berths to the semifinals. In the quarterfinals, SHS-Ateneo B faces off against Benthel Asia School of Technology (BAST) for the right to face Don Bosco; while Omar Basketball goes up against USC South-A for a semifinal date with One on One-A.

In the Under 15 age group of Division 1, CLBA plays Southwestern University-PHINMA. The UV Passerelle B team plays Don Bosco-A. BAST goes up against Team Millennials, while USPF-A matches up against One on One-C.

In the Under 18 age group of Division 1, SHS-Ateneo Juniors B will play on Sunday against the winner of tomorrow’s elimination round game between the Sisters of Mary School-Boystown and PAREF Springdale.

In regular season games of the tournament backed by Cebu Landmasters Inc. and PAGCOR, PAREF Springdale (2-0) faces One on One B (2-1) in an Under 12 Division 2 game to decide who moves on to the next round. Talisay (3-0) seeks to sweep its group as it plays PAREF Springdale (0-2) in an Under 15 Division 2 game.

Bleacher Talk August 30, 2009 Milo BEST Milo and BEST, BEST and Milo = Milo BEST. Get it? It’s a play of words that has been there for the past 25 years and it looks like nothing can stop it. When one talks about THE basketball tournament for youth, Milo BEST is hands-down, a top-of-mind answer. And so why all the fuss? All because Cebu’s 2009 edition of the Milo-sponsored BEST SBP/Passerelle Twin Basketball Tournaments kicks off tomorrow at the University of San Carlos North Campus Gym. Once again, the best of age-group basketball get together for a friendly round of games in what is now known as the most followed tournament in the country.

Milo BEST: All Basics

Milo BEST: All Basics The Basketball Efficiency Scientific Training (BEST) Center has been around for 31 years, and it has been at the forefront of doing the most basic of basketball teaching: sticking to the basics. This is the primary content of the Milo-sponsored BEST Center basketball clinics that have become an institution in Philippine basketball. “We teach the fundamentals, lahat ng klaseng fundamentals ng basketball — that’s our philosophy, dahil sabi nila, basketball is just a series of fundamentals,” said Nic, who was inspired to bring the concept of basketball clinics to the Philippines 31 years ago when budding players at that time had no formal training in the sport.

Dominate Visayas?

Bleacher Talk November 9, 2008 Dominate Visayas? Cebu has always boasted that it’s the hotbed of basketball south of Manila. But if it’s a real dominance over the rest of our neighbors in Visayas and Mindanao, this will have to cover all levels of basketball. At the higher level of basketball, Cebu is virtually unstoppable. The M. Lhuillier ballclub has always been tops in the semi pro circuit, representing Cebu in the Liga Plipinas and their previous leagues such as the MVBA and URBL. At the collegiate level, the University of the Visayas has always been tagged as the top collegiate team in the Vismin and is even considered a threat to the top teams of the UAAP and NCAA. We’re not counting the PBA and PBL here since these are more national in scope. But I’d like to see M. Lhuillier take their action to this level (this makes another story). The Central Visayas has also been our domain in the Palarong Pambansa even if we suffered a glitch when Bohol defeated Cebu City in the high schoo...
