Sykes, Aegis PS defend crowns

SYKES A and Aegis People Support defended their titles with aplomb as they repeated as champions in the men's and women's divisions, respectively, of the Inter-BPO Football Tournament held Sunday at the San Roque Parish football field in Mandaue City.

Sykes defeated first-time participants Stream while Teletech B finished in third place.

Powering the defense of Sykes was Best Goalkeeper awardee Ace Mangohid and Most Valuable Player winner Ren Colina.

Dexter Arrojado took the Top Goal Scorer award after he scored eight goals in the one-day tournament.

Meanwhile, on the distaff side, Aegis bested Convergys behind the offense-defense attack of Top Goal Scorer Chinee Lim and Best Goalkeeper winner Kristine Bas.

The star of the show though, was Nenette Espiritu, who took home the MVP award.

The BPO companies will take turns hosting the Inter-BPO tournaments every quarter and hope that this will encourage more football enthusiasts to form teams within their companies. These festivals are organized in hopes of promoting wellness, sportsmanship and teamwork.

The 2nd Inter-BPO football festival was sponsored by Sports Exchange Bar, Waterfresh and Monster Radio BT 105.9.
