PCAF bets dominate FCAAF table tennis

MANILA, Philippines — The Paco Citizen Academy Foundation swept four individual events while dominating three of four team competitions to claim the overall championship in the 21st Filipino-Chinese Amateur Athletic Federation (FCAAF) Inter-Scholastics Table Tennis Championship over the weekend at Robinson’s Otis in Paco, Manila.

The PCAF table-netters sizzled in an impressive show in the tournament organized by FCAAF and presented by the Table Tennis Association for National Development (TATAND) and Robinson’s Mall.

Khevin Cruz beat Jahrzali Rivera in the all-Paco final of the boys’ singles elementary class and later was named Most Valuable Player after helping the PCAF boys’ elementary squad with Qeshaun Lau Crisostomo, Jharzali Rivera, and Efraim Jan Lau to the gold against Xavier School.

“The tournament is part of the FCAAF celebration for its 35th founding anniversary. For over three decades, we established a strong grassroots sports program through promotions, event organizing, and assistance not just for table tennis but for 17 other sports disciplines under the FCAAF supervision,” said PCAAF president Natalie Sia.
