THE CORDILELRA Higher Education Sports Athletic Association hopes to gain further achievement as its 10th season opens this September.
Set to open on September 2, this year’s collegiate league will be hosted by BSBT College.
At least 12 schools are set to rejoin the annual competition, according to National Institute of Information Technology’s Breslin Bill Maliones.
“With BSBT hosting the event, where hoping that other schools will also join the year long sports fest,” added Maliones of the outgoing host NIIT.
Expected to return are King's College of the Philippines (formerly known as Eastern Luzon College), Benguet Vocational School Colleges, and Montañosa National College.
They will be joined by regular members NIIT Baguio, Baguio College of Technology, Philippine Women's University, Cordillera Career Development College, AMA College, Easter College, Luzon Nazarene Bible College, and Data Center College of the Philippines Baguio.
Events to be played in the first semester include volleyball, cheer dance, literary music, chess men and women, scrabble, billiards, dance sports, and sports quiz bee. Added events are modern dance, darts, bowling for the technical and executives, and soft ball (exhibition sport).
Basketball competitions will be the biggest draw for this year's competition when it ushers in the second semester with all eyes on defending champion Baguio College of Technology gunning for another title retention bid.
STI College Baguio and National University who skipped in last year’s tournament will still be a doubtful starter for the league’s upcoming season.
Unlike the Baguio-Benguet Educational Athletic League which caters to universities in Baguio and Benguet, Chesaa was formed for the smaller colleges to compete in various team and individual sports events to promote camaraderie and team building among students from other colleges.
