CBA Sportsfest

The College Student Council together with all the Academic Club of the College of Business Administration, University of the Cordilleras decided to work hand and hand to organize the CBA Sports fest, “Mini Olympics”. This aims to establish the bond and Sportsmanship of the officers of the different organization of the College and to have a deep working relationship to the officers and its members.

For this event to be successful, a lot of preparation happened. This preparation includes the recruitment of players for Basketball Men, Volleyball Men and Women, Badminton. And to do this, the officers conducted an open table last February 6-9, 2012.

The initial plan of venue is at Green Valley Sports Complex and this event must commence on a Sunday. But as the officers deliberate and discuss the hazard of conducting an activity outside the school premises especially on a Sunday, the officers now decided to held the event on Friday and the venue will be at the gym.

Four teams were created based on the number of members. Red team consist of NMEC, IJE and SJE. Blue teams consist of PASOA, JPMAP and ATTC. JFINEX and MJE have a lot of members that’s why they have individual teams which is the pink team and yellow team accordingly.

Come March 30, 2012. Ms. Eiza Ngayodan from CSC headed the Registation. At exactly 9:00 in the morning the program started. An opening prayer by Ms. Abigail Colorado started the event. Followed by Mr. Paulo Romelo Teodoro gave the opening remarks. After this, Mr. Elvin Cedric Garcia, one of the players for Basketball Men headed the Oath of Sportsmanship. Mr. Richie Boy Cardines, President of Institute of Junior Economists and the MC of the event officially gave his go signal to start the game at exactly 10:00 in the morning.

The first game was Basketball (Men). Different teams fight to be the last team standing. The crowd has their own favorites. They cheer at the top of their voices to show their support to their teams and that motivated the players even more to play harder. These boys are eager to win the game. At the end of the day, Marketing Junior Executives remain to be the last team standing and crowned the champion.

Its one o’clock in the afternoon and the next game was Volleyball (Women). The teams did their best to conquer the title. Different teams from different organization gave their very best. But as time passed by, the champion was crowed and it was the Red Team (NMEC, IJE and SJE).

The volleyball ended and it is almost 5 o’clock. The reservation of the event is only from 5pm so even if there are a lot of games that was prepared. The officers decided to end the day’s event. Part of the games is Badminton Men and Women, Volleyball (Men) and the palarong pangbansa that involves the games that Filipinos popularized.

After the event, everyone was tired and exhausted. The audiences have throat ache because they cheer so loud during the event. But despite hardships that was encountered by the officers and participants, it was all worth it. Its heartwarming that all the officers are working hard just for this event to be successful. You can see the camaraderie and bonding that was established to all the officers. So as we end the day, we were just delighted with the result and you can see that there are no hard feelings between the players. All we can say is that we cant wait for next year CBA Sports fest and we believed that event would be as great as this years event.

CBA Trade Fair

In Celebration of the CBA Week, the Marketing Junior Executives work hand in hand with Student Council to conduct a Trade Fare. Trade fare is scheduled from March 22 -24 at the Canteen Extension and at the back of M209. To attract more people, CBA borrowed the Pavilion from the College of Hospitality and Tourism Management and it serves as the place for the different clubs to sell the products that they are offering.

At the first day of the Trade Fare, Marketing Junior Executives failed to join because of the delayed information that the school cannot provide us with wires for electricity. This discourages our plans to sell pancakes and shake that we find more profitable in our previous trade fare for Valentines. Plan B for the club is to sell soimai, but other clubs sell it on the first day and that’s unethical for the club to compete with other clubs product because we defy the objective of this trade fare and that is to raise funds in a nice and friendly way. Due to this, the club officers find other saleable product that would fit the taste of both the students and the employees of the University.  As marketing students we should provide the students with the right product that would satisfy and delight them at a reasonable price. This is an added pressure for the club. At the end of the first day of the Trade fare we derived at a common product and that is fresh fruits like Watermelon, Mangos, singkamas, and pineapple.

This event made us realize that selling is not that easy. It involves a lot of hard work and effort and for you to succeed you should be able to have the right attitude and that is patience and dedication. All the sacrifices we made were really worth it. The most important part of this trade fare is not the gaining of funds but the lessons that you can acquire.
