Thank you. FTCSG F3, Fun, Fitness and Friendship. See you all at the Tournament.

To kick-off the first major event of FTC and to provide an avenue for networking and camaraderie during the Vesak Day holidays (28-29 May 2010), FTC is organizing the first 2010 PRESIDENT’S CUP, a yearly event to be sponsored by key officers/supporters of FTC. The first major sponsor of this event is no other than the current president, Ramon Padiernos. This event is in line with his theme of 3Fs.

The President’s Cup will not be successful without the extraordinary efforts of the Tennis Committee (Eric Gutierrez, Egwin Agawin, Mon Red, Raymond Palomares, Raul Alenton, Ronnie Ruanto, Ernie Sabigan and key FTC officers working behind the scene). This two-day event is well subscribed with about 150 entries received in various doubles categories (Mixed doubles, A, B1, B2, & C). In total, about 70 – 80 members participated.

During the matches, players battled it out to win the crucial points. Despite issues with the court bookings and unforeseen events like unavailability of some players, the event was a huge success. During the awarding ceremony, winners received price money on top of the beautiful star platinum trophies. Everyone enjoyed the special gifts draw and the super delicious buffet spread prepared for the participants. You can see the smile on everyone’s faces. Thanks to family members & friends who waited patiently and supported the players.

Winners of the 2010 President’s Cup are:

Class A Champion             : Egwin Wilbur Agawin / Raymond Palomares
Class A Runner Up            : Jonsen Javier / Zandro Duque

Class B1 Champion           : Raymund “Mon” Red / Cris Lestino
Class B1 Runner Up          : Shan Andes / Alex Juan

Pls watch out for the Interclub Doubles League (sanctioned by the Singapore Tennis Association) in Sep and the next FTC major doubles event in Oct.

Well done, FTC Singapore!
