The 2005 MDX Amateur Radio Club Inter-Color Basketball League is set to get underway at 3pm this Sunday, July 10, at the Gilbert C. Ada Gymnasium.

But before the ceremonial jumpball, MDX president Bong Malasarte has scheduled a final meeting for all team representatives tomorrow, July 8, 6pm at the Filipino Community Center on the ground floor of the Nauru Building in Susupe.

Eight teams have signed up for the 2005 MDX Amateur Radio Club Inter-Color Basketball League.

One of them, Visminda, the defending champion of the United Filipino Organization Basketball League, has decided to change its name to Pooh Deni, which is the restaurant of playing coach Danny Bicera back in his native Philippines.

Malasarte also announced that Country House has pulled out from its sponsorship of Mobil, leaving the oil company, coached by Marvin Deocares, alone to support the team.

The other six participating teams are defending champion Samahang Ilokano at Pangasinense, Saipan Ice & Water 20th Anniversary Basketball League champion Diamond Fixers, Micronesian Brokers, Samahang Manggagawang Filipino, Cabalen, Subway, and Mobil.

The other coaches are Rick Alegre of SIP, Boy Garcia of Diamond Fixers, Roland Pamintuan of Cabalen, Bong Sese of Subway, Voots Salvani of SMF, and John Penalosa of MBI.

Malasarte said that it is very important that a representative from each participating team attend Friday’s meeting, since the adjusted ground rules for the league would be discussed. He also said Friday also is the deadline for the submission of team rosters.
