The Women’s Colleges Sports Association (WCSA) Badminton Competition for school employees’ category took its superb games on February 9 and 10, 2008 at the Assumption College of Makati. The participating schools, namely, Holy Spirit, Miriam College, Philippine Women’s University, Assumption College and St. Scholastica’s College, heated the game with an elimination round on the first day.  Our players, three from the P.E. College Department (Ms. Encar Deveraturda, Ms. Gigi Cordova and Mr. Almario L. Quesada) and two from Information Technology Office (Mr. Moises Nalumen and Mr. Randy Bermundo), displayed their best as they faced tough fights, both for singles and doubles. Our humble victory of the day was scented when the game officials announced the only two top schools qualified for the championship round: St. Scholastica’s College (SSC) and Miriam College (MC).

The finishing matches on the second day were filled with excitement, challenge and screams while the audiences cheered for their respective players. One amazing thing about our players was their level of absolute zest to win. This eagerness did not drop even when our points were behind MC’s. The tricky tactic of our opponent pushed our splendid player, Quesada on his knees just to execute the winning return against Miriam College. Though the game ended with Miriam College bagging the champion’s trophy, and St. Scholastica’s College garnering 1^st runner-up, SSC proved a truly challenging opponent for Miriam College. The SSC community members who watched the event were heard saying, “our standing in badminton? … not bad!”
