WFA Sports Update

WFA Sports' update....

We have all been busy, we hardly had the time to update everyone with what's been happening in our WFA sports' arena....

* WFA Men's basketball team for Rotorua 2007 - Tryouts are on-going at Uni Rec (Gate 1 - Knighton Road) on Fridays from 6pm sharp. Contact Rene Gorteza or Rommel Borda

* WFA Badminton - we had two male entries at the local Hamilton ethnic tournament. They played last Saturday, I believe it was a one-win, one-loss accomplished. Great efforts for Randy and Simbad! Games are held every Saturday at Dey St. There's also a regular practise at Dey St Badminton hall, contact Jenny Turingan for more info.

* WFA Volleyball (Mixed) - Our team has been playing for awhile at (another local) winter Social league and they have been playing awesome(ly)! considering its a newly-formed team! We currently have a 3-0 (win-loss)!! Go Pinoy!! Games are at Te Rapa Sportsdome, Church St (745pm Mondays). Contact Aljun Gorteza or Noel Magsino

* WFA Boy's Under-17 basketball team for Rotorua 2007 - Practise are on Fridays 530pm (either AgResearch gym, Ruakura or St. John's College, Hillcrest Road). We are still looking for players on this roster. One has to be under-17 yrs old on Oct 20-21 of this year. Strict compliance required. Contact Tony de Vega, Aljun Gorteza or PJ Regor

* WFA Ten-Pin Bowling - our all female team has been practising continuously at Sky Casino, Victoria St. They are still looking for their "thorn amongst the roses". If you are keen and averaging 200-above/ per game (hee!), they'd like to hear from you! Contact Jo McEwen or Mel Hanley

* WFA Darts - the "boys" have been competing at two local tournaments, Thursdays at Ohaupo Club and Fridays at Hamilton Workingmen's, Frankton. There's a $4-entry fee and if you win, you get to take home a meat pack! If you are interested, contact Mark Duran or Karl Turingan. Melo, Noel M and Jett are also in this bull's-eye team. :)

* WFA Tennis - Leon and the rest of the boys would like you to join them at their regular practises at the University (open) tennis courts, Silverdale Road. Contact Aljun G or Jenny T.

Whooa! Are we full-on or what, I bet I have missed some other WFA sports' activities happening at the moment...but I'm sure our ever-hardworking WFA Sports' co-ordinators (Rene G and Aljun) will do the addendum to this....

To all yous...maraming salamat and keep it up! Be proud you're Pinoy!
