Cebu interested in hosting
2013 Palarong Pambansa

Negros Occidental's bid to host the 2013 Palarong Pambansa can face a tough challenge from Cebu after Mayor Michael Rama of Cebu City expressed interest in joining the bidding to host the games next year.

Cebu hosted the 2012 Private Schools Athletic Association (PRISAA) national finals a week ago and during the opening ceremony, Rama said they may bid for the Palaro hosting.

Citing the manpower and facilities available in Cebu, PRISAA projects director Bernard Ricablanca said it is about time the city host the Palarong Pambansa after hosting it in 1994.

Regions to challenge NCR's rule

Delegates from different regions in the country are now in Lingayen, Pangasinan, ready to compete for the gold, silver, and bronze medals at stake in the 2012 Palarong Pambansa.

Negros Occidental athletes left for the national games Sunday afternoon, inspired by the message of Gov. Alfredo Marañon Jr. to strive harder and set their mind towards the goal of conquering the Palarong Pambansa title.

During the turn over of incentives to the WVRAA medalists at the Capitol last month, the governor said he will double the amount for athletes who will win the gold in Lingayen.
