He said members of the TAD team that emerged champion in the 2nd Southeast Asia Tchoukball Championships in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam last year will spearhead the clinic.

Philippine Tchoukball Team coach Dan Peñano also said a photo exhibit showing the exploits of TAD teams at 9:30 a.m. will usher in the two-day festivity.

Team chaplain Ben Gumba, for his part, said: "TAD takes pride in being a self-sustaining sports association in Davao City as we rarely get support from the local government. But despite that, we were still able to bring home the title for Davao City after our success in the 2nd Philippine Open Tchoukball Championships in Cebu City last January 13 to 14."

TAD will also conduct a talk show program with the parents and students at 3 p.m. tomorrow, Sunday, to discuss various aspects of tchoukball and how parents could support their children in developing their skills.
