Bluejaz, Black Knights bag titles in Cherifer Beach Football


CHERIFER BEACH FOOTBALL. Princess Bello (right) of Black Knights Green celebrates after scoring a goal against keeper Alexander Lam of Sakya Boys FC in one of the exciting action of the Cherifer Kids Beach Football Tournament at the Bluejaz Resort and Waterpark. Bluejaz FC won the Under-12 titles while Black Knights copped the Under-10 crown in the event organized by Bravetower Promotions.




Host Bluejaz and Black Knights survived a tough day on sand and emerged champions in their respective
divisions after the first day of competitions in the Cherifer Kids Beach Football Tournament at the
Bluejaz Resort and Waterpark in the Island Garden City of Samal.

Bluejaz beat Sakya Boys in a shootout scoring all 3 attempts to win the Under-12 title while Black Knights
copped the Under-10 crown with a shootout win over Ateneo Blue after a scoreless regulation. Philip
Bantayan, Neil Antalan and Rambo Enriquez scored for Bluejaz while Antalan, who won the MVP award,
stood tall in an outstanding goalkeeping effort to preserve the win.

Bluejaz came from a tough semis outing against Black Knights before winning its first ever title in a rain-
soaked finals against a stubborn Sakya squad. “We are so happy we finally won a title,” said Bluejaz
owner Jazmin Middleton.

Black Knights also came through with a big win after placing only third in a recent tournament. Ateneo
Blue missed their first two attempts in the shootout to pave the way for the Black Knights’ win. Black
Knights keeper Raegon Zoren Herard Arbaan was simply too tough to score against and that earned him
his first MVP title.

Black Knights finished second runner-u in the Under-12 division after beating Sakya Girls while Ateneo
Knights tripped Southpoint for second runner-up honors.

The other awardees in this tournament sponsored by Cherifer PGM 10-22 Multivitamins and presented
by Bluejaz Resort and Waterpark are Carlos Costan (best goalkeeper, U-12) and Charles Edward Ybanez
(best goalkeeper, U-10).

The tournament, organized by Bravetower Promotions, resumes for the Under-14 girls and boys
divisions with some 10 teams taking part. Competing in the boys division are Atletico, IRBU
FC, IRBU United, Bluejaz, and Black Knights while the girls division will feature Davao Strikers, Lady
Knights, Bluejaz, SOS, and Hinex.(pr)
