Department of Education Cebu City’s sports coordinator and Cebu City Sports Commission official Francis Ramirez told CDN Digital that the road to qualifying for the Palarong Pambansa just got tougher. The 17 regions will be divided into four clusters depending on their geographical locations. Region VII or Central Visayas is under cluster 3 together with Regions 6, 8, and 9.
In addition to that, Ramirez also stated that individual events like athletics, swimming, and archery have “Palarong Pambansa” qualified times and distances set by officials to filter the number of athletes competing. “Ang individual events ug ang mga combat sports, diretso na qualified sa Palarong Pambansa. Otherwise kinahanglan gyud nimo makuha ang qualified time or distance sa Palarong Pambansa or pildihon nimo ang mga ka clusters nimo para maka qualify ka. Challenge ni for athletes unlike sa previous nga mga Palarong Pambansa nga kung modaog ka sa regional diretso na sa Palarong Pambansa. Karon need na sila mo qualify para clustering before sila makaduwa sa Palarong Pambansa,” Ramirez explained.
Nine units along with the Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation-Inc member schools will compete in the meet.
