Team consultant Greg Ramos said he is confident that the NMRAA Secondary Boys will advance to the quarterfinals. (Contributed photos) NORTHERN Mindanao Region Athletic Association (NMRAA) has sent a very formidable secondary football team to the Palarong Pambansa in Antique but unluckily the Northern Mindanao booters have picked the “Group of Death” in the elimination round. Team consultant Greg Ramos said they have a very strong line-up which has really been selected as the best secondary players from the region but their first challenge is how to advance to the next round. “We have National Capital Region, Negros Island Region and Central Luzon in our group,” he added. Ramos, who is one of the pillars of football development in Bukidnon, is confident that the team is well prepared and it can defeat any of their three opponents in the elimination round. The National Capital Region (NCR) is always a strong team despite of missing Far Eastern University this year. Negros Island Regional (NIR) will be bannered by the San Carlos City boys of national coach Juan Carmona while Central Luzon is reportedly coached and prepared by coaches of the Younghusband Football Academy. The Younghusband Football Academy is owned by the most famous brothers in Philippine football Phil and James. The Northern Mindanao on the other hand is made up mostly of the Regional Palaro champion team from Valencia City, Bukidnon. They also have players from Manolo Fortich also Bukidnon, Misamis Occidental and Cagayan de Oro City. One advantage of the Northern Mindanao boys is that they have the scoring duo of Robert Lawrence Wilson form Holy Cross High School Manolo Fortich and Rocky James Grant from Rosevale School. Wilson was a member of the National U16 that saw action abroad last year. He was recruited by San Beda High School varsity team. He, however, got injured during his national team stint forcing him to postpone his move to San Beda. Grant is a strong striker and has been the heart and soul of the Rosevale offense for many years now. The Valencia Boys come from Bukidnon Faith Christian School (BFCS), Valencia National High School, and First Fruit Christian Academy. The boys from BFCS are Melquisedec Akut, Juan Paolo Arcadio, Rico Niño Braga, Mark Allen Daig, Tarsish Garciano, Geranie Matillano, Andrew Ramos IV, Kenneth Visitacion, Howle Luke Yap and Bryle Rosal. Picked from Valencia National High School is Jurud Jhon Latap, while Anton Maurice Sistoso is a lone player from First Fruit Academy. Aside from Wilson, players from Holy Cross High School who made the team are Neil John Borja, and Keith Marcel Pacanza. Marben Acierto is a lone representative from Corpus High School of Cagayan de Oro city while Ronald Rosario is representing Looc National High School of Misamis Occidental. Head coach is Bob Suclatan of BFCS while assisting him is Jordan Subalon of Lurungan Elementary School. The first match of NMRAA is on April 22 against Central Luzon, then against NCR on April 24 and then against NIR on April 25. The quarterfinals will be on April 27, semis on April 28 and finals on April 29. All their matches in the elimination will be played at the University of Antique in Sibalom, 15 kilometers away from the Capital city of San Jose de Buenavista.

11 May 2017 Local talents impress nat’l men’s U19 coach By JACK BIANTAN NATIONAL U19 football coach Mari Aberasturi was impressed by the talents of local footballers in Northern Mindanao, even as he recommends more competitive matches for them to improve. Aberasturi, also the head coach of the National University football program, conducted trials for the national men’s U19 football team at the West Rdige Sports Park in Barangay Carmen, Cagayan de Oro. Some 61 players from Cagayan de Oro, Lanao del Sur, Bukidnon, Butuan, and Zamboanga showed up for the trials conducted with the help of Mindanao’s top football coach Percy Guarin. “Certainly Northern Mindanao is a rich source of football talents. I have identified many players who could play for the national team,” he said. Aberasturi, however, refused to name them yet as he still has to conduct trials in Davao City on Thursday, May 11. He also scheduled trials in Cebu, Bacolod, Luzon and Metro Manila. The national coach said that for players to improve their skills and competitiveness, they would need at least 40 matches a year. “That is why I am pushing for local clubs or FA’s (f ootball associations) to organize an eleven-a-side competition for teams from Northern Mindanao to keep players in shape and for them to learn and improve so that they can play professional football in the Philippines Football League (PFL) someday,” he said. Local FA Mocagesco president Percy Guarin is initially talking to several clubs from Butuan, Iligan, Valencia, Malaybalay and Cagayan de Oro to make this tournament happens. Aberasturi, an Asian Football Confedaration Class A coach, also said that these players who showed up for the trials are the future of Philippine football. “Let’s see in less than five years now, some of them will be playing in the PFL already or in the national team. It will only depend on how much hard work will they do to improve themselves,” he added. Aberasturi has eyed at least five players who can play in the national U19 from the Cagayan de Oro trials but refused to name them. He will select 35 players from Cagayan de Oro, Davao, Bacolod, Cebu, Luzon, and Metro Manila trials. The 35 players will then join the training pool which will hold camp before they will be trimmed down to 24 players for the AFF U18 2017 Championship on September 4 to 18 in Myanmar and the AFC U19 Championship 2018 qualifiers set on November 4to 8 in Cambodia.
