DAVAO DEL NORTE, January 30, 2014 (PIA) – All roads again lead to Davao del Norte as the province will be hosting once more the 2014 Davao Regional Athletic Association (DAVRAA) on February 9-12, 2014.
Over 5,000 athletes, coaches and officials from six cities and four provinces in the Davao Region are expected to attend the four-day spectacle at the modern Davao del Norte Sports and Tourism Complex in Mankilam, Tagum City.
Vice Gov. Victorio Suaybaguio and OIC-Provincial Administrator Norma Lumain led the Executive Committee meeting on Monday to work out on the working, security transportation, medical and other important details of the games.
Governor Rodolfo del Rosario earlier said the province will leave no stones unturned in ensuring the security of all the participants and visitors.
It can be recalled that Davao del Norte’s spanking sports complex first hosted the DAVRAA on February last year.
The facility again saw action during the Mindanao Batang Pinoy Qualifying Games that followed on August, 2013.
Davao del Norte won the right to once again host the 2014 DAVRAA during the DAVRAA Board meeting last September.
Del Rosario said the state-of-the-art sports facility was a major factor why the DAVRAA Board opted to bring the regional meet back to the province.
He noted the DAVRAA Board was impressed by the province's first hosting of the competitions.
Hostilities will yet again resume at the facility in the coming month of April this year with the holding of the National Private Schools Athletic Association (Prisaa) championships.
The province hopes to up the ante as it is optimistic about the prospect of hosting the 2015 Palarong Pambansa.(Noel Baguio-DavNor PIO)
