These special umpire chairs have distinct specifications for tennis and will provide Ilonggo umpires a more comfortable and convenient posts when handling the tennis tournaments in Iloilo City.

Since its return from a four-month hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Executive Assistant for Sports Mr. Rudiver Jungco Sr. and the Iloilo City Sports Development Division team had been hands-on regarding the athletes’ needs.

Coaches Alven Santiago and Alquinn Flores of the Iloilo Sports Academy tennis team also had their share of contributions to the program.
