Happy Basketball Turnover Ceremony Hunters!

One day after the NEU Hunters won the PSL 21U championship, two milestone events took place in the NEU Main Campus. The first event is the formal opening of the newly-renovated NEU Gym and IS Covered Court. The NEU Gym now has a digital scoreboard and shotclocks installed, as well as an FIBA-standard basketball flooring. The ribbon-cutting ceremony was presided over by NEU Board of Trustees Member Bro. Edmario M. Reyes and University President Bro. Alberto R. Domingo Jr.

The opening ceremony quickly gave way to the HAPPY BASKETBALL Turnover Ceremonies. The said event, which took place at the NEU Gym, is in cooperation with the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China. His Excellency Ambassador Huang Xilian of China and Special Envoy of the Philippines to China H. E. Benito Techico were the guests of honor. All told, the Chinese Embassy gave 5,000 pairs of basketball shoes and 150 basketballs to the University as a gesture of friendship and cooperation between the Embassy and NEU.
