“The try-outs this Wednesday and Thursday at 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at Bren Z. Guiao Convention Center will determine who will form the Pampanga Team for Liga ng Pilipinas. We are not limiting it to Pampanga but to nearby provinces as well, provided they are not above 29 years of age,” Trinidad said.
He added that basketeers playing in amateur and collegiate leagues could join the tryouts.
“All they have to do is call or text me at 0927 432 2244. Let’s all make Pampanga a name in basketball again just like the famed Pampanga Dragons. The time is now when the provincial government fully supports it,” concluded Trinidad.
