THE Rain or Shine Elasto Painters turned over a newly rubberized basketball court to residents of Barangay Carmen headed by their barangay captain Raineir Joaquin 'Kikang-KapKik' Uy and Mayor Rolando 'Klarex' Uy on Friday (Nov. 14).

 

The new hardcourt provides a safer and more professional playing surface for local athletes and youth and coincided with preparations for their upcoming PBA match at the Aquilino Pimentel International Convention Center this Saturday, November 15.

 

During the turnover ceremony, the team also held a meet-and-greet with Mayor Klarex and Barangay Carmen Captain Kikang Uy.

 

PBA Commissioner Willy Marcial, Rain or Shine Head Coach Yeng Guiao, and Atty. Mamerto Mondragon, the Rain or Shine team governor were also present during the visit.

 

Mayor Klarex gave his full support for the highly anticipated PBA match while Kapkik, one of the major sponsors of the event, also emphasized the importance of fostering community sports development in the city. (MDS/CIO/Photod by: Jomar Figuracion & Roel Felicitas/CIO)
