Basketball fans can catch and support high school and club teams from all over the Philippines as they compete in the upcoming National Basketball Training Center (NBTC) tournament, as the Smart LiveStream App streams the games for free.
Kicking off in North Luzon on January 19 – 21, followed by its Mindanao leg on February 2 – 4, Visayas leg on February 16-18, South Luzon on March 1-3, and ending in Pasay in March, 68 grassroots teams will vie for a spot in the regional championships, where four teams from each region will advance to the nationals and battle it out on the hardcourt against Metro Manila and invited foreign clubs.
“Aligned with our advocacy to support grassroots sports development in the Philippines, Smart is enabling Filipinos nationwide to watch NBTC via mobile phones or Smart TV with the Smart LiveStream App, and also to raise awareness and provide exposure to our homegrown basketball talents,” said Jude Turcuato, FVP and Head of Sports at PLDT and Smart.
Prominent names like Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green, Gilas Pilipinas center Kai Sotto, Kamaka Hepa, Kihei Clark, Jeron Artest, and Kai Ballungay all competed in the NBTC.
“Sports, particularly basketball, has always been at the heart of many Filipinos. We are glad to have the support of Smart in helping the Filipino youth cultivate their love for the sport and in inspiring them to become the best athletes that they can be, especially when they suit up for their teams in the future,” said NBTC Program Director Eric Altamirano.
