2014 UCPB SOUTHERN LUZON SPORTSFEST
An atmosphere of excitement fills the morning air! Officers and staff donning their different colored shirts. Some associates secretly and eagerly practiced in the covered courts and halls chanting cheers while others…, still clouded by drowsiness, await the official start of the event. What’s the fuss about? It’s the 2014 UCPB Southern Luzon Sportsfest, an event in which clusters are tested for their patience, perseverance and unity in the teambuilding; while grace, pride and honor in the singing and dance contests and the search for 2014 Mr. & Ms. Southern Luzon.
VENUE
The Sportsfest was held in The Splash Mountain Resort Complex located at Km.58 Brgy. Lalakay (along the National Highway), Los Banos, Laguna on August 2 – 3, 2014. This resort complex has 19 natural hot spring pools. It has three hotels, the most affordable is the Splash hotel with 44 rooms, 8 dorms and 10 pools. Their most popular attraction is the Giant Waterslides that is open during summer weekends only.
SHOUT OUT
It was a fun filled activity fostering camaraderie and goodwill among associates led by ever vibrant Region Head Jocelyn Gomez. Five clusters, namely Batangas (Batangas, Bigben, Lemery, Lipa, Sto. Tomas and Tanauan branches)- Blue Team; Bicol (Naga, Legaspi, Masbate and Sorsogon branches)- Green Team; Laguna-Mindoro (Sta. Cruz, San Pablo, Calapan and San Jose branches)- Red Team ; Quezon (Daet, Centro, Lucena and Gumaca branches) – Yellow Team; and CSU-CFBC – Orange Team; vied for the coveted championship in different disciplines. But before the activities even started, the clusters had a SHOUT OUT each expressing their desire to win ... a way of saying they can't be intimidated, and ready to face the battle and be on top.
TEAM BUILDING
The Sportsfest is an avenue for the clusters to display teamwork. More than winning is the ability of each cluster to face any given challenge like mine field, air lock and marble transfer. The most important lesson learned in the end is the test of unity. A test to determine if indeed the groups have bound together as one class or are still fragmented. Obvious signs of a united class are teamwork, communication, heart and the will to win. Without any of these signs, unity in any team will not be present. The same is true in our branches, day in day out. Unison is the binding force of a class. It is the secret ingredient of success shown by the winner Batangas Cluster.
