The 6th Bai Cristobal
Summer Basketball Camp, the only basketball camp which advocates
its training through Christian virtues and values consequently
molds the growing young kids to become good leaders of the
future is now accepting registration on a first-come-first
served basis. This was relayed to the Bohol Chronicle by Rodolfo
Bas Madanguit, provincial commissioner of the Basketball Association
of the Philippines.
The
summer basketball clinic, the only one here which is done
yearly, accepts only limited slots in order to personalize
the training of the young participants.
Last
year, there were other interested young students who were
not able to join the camp because of their conflict in the
schedules. Parents have trooped to the headquarters of the
camp and aired their requests to hold extension in the training
schedules but because of time constraints, the organizers
did not make it.

This
year, the camp will hold two training schedules as follows,
to wit: one will be held from March 31 to April 6 and
the other one is set from May 12 to 18 this year. But
the latter is only tentative depending on the enrollment.
If
we may recall, the BAI Cristobal Summer Basketball Camp
is the only one of its kind which follows up the progress
of its trainees by holding a mini basketball tournament
from among the participants. Furthermore, the camp is
the only one which is privileged to participate, from
among its trainees, to the Bohol Schools Amateur Athletic
Association (BSAAA).
Former
superstar of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA)
and now national coach, Arturo "Bai" Cristobal
will be here to personally conduct the training of the
young aspirants.

The
chief trainer will be ably assisted by a local bunch of known
basketball personalities. The battery of trainers includes
the following: Lawi Galinato, a former UV Green Lance and
now a commercial coach; Tatang Legitimas, a former BIT Super
Cruiser and now coach of the BIT IC Super Cruisers; Many time
MVP, Gerwin Cabalit, a former BIT Super Cruiser and now coach
