Magsanoc,  Codiñera to
play with local cagers

Two PBA legends Ronnie Magsanoc and Jerry Codiñera will play a friendly exhibition game with the locals in Purok Langka, Brgy. Taloc in Bago City on Saturday.

Before the game, the two veteran cagers will lead the unveiling of the “Court of Inspiration”, a basketball court built by volunteers in the barangay with the assistance of Alaxan FR.

The court contains the `Legend Markers’ or motivational messages about the accomplishments of Filipino basketball legends to inspire locals to achieve the same greatness, a press release from the company said.

Both Codiñera and Magsanoc joined the “Court of Inspiration” project to recall their humble beginnings, when they started their careers in neighborhood courts.

Ten courts are now in the works, or have been constructed in Iloilo, Dumaguete, Tacloban, and Cebu in Visayas; Cagayan de Oro, Zamboanga, Butuan, Davao, and Saranggani for Mindanao, the press release said.*
