ASIDE from Manny Pacquiao sporting Lapu-Lapufs getup, scores of men, dressed in camouflage and armed to the teeth are also expected to troop to Lapu-Lapu City for the annual Kadaugan sa Mactan festivities thanks to Pacman, the group, not the boxer.
The Philippine Airsfot Club of Mactan (Pacman), in coordination with the Lapu-Lapu City Tourism, Cultural and Historical Affairs Commission will hold the First Pacman Airsoft Close Quarter Battle Competition on April 26 to 27 at the Mactan Central School in Lapu-Lapu City.
During the press launch yesterday, at the Binugoy Restaurant, Pacman president Jonathan Cabasa said 10 teams have already registered and confirmed their participation in the two-day competition.
The 10 teams competing are Plantation Bay Airsoft team, Team Hammerhead, Trident Knights, Mandaue Airsoft Group, Team Deep Recon, Guadalupe Airsoft team, Team SAT, Pagcor Mactan Airsoft Team, EMC and ATO.
gThey are very well-skilled team and this could be one of a heck of tournament,h said Pacman past president Jude Abad who also attended the launch yesterday.
For the competition, Cabasa said each team will have to retrieve a bomb from a certain building, bring it to a safe zone and defuse it to gain 200 points.
However, aside from the 10-minute cut off for the teams to finish the search, each squad will have to deal with an opposing force.
gThe team with the lowest time will be considered the winner in case there will be a tie score,h said Cabasa.
On the other hand, Lapu-Lapu City Airsoft committee member Ahmed Cuizon said they will stage an Airsoft competition in the festivities since they wanted to introduce new events in the annual Kadaugan festivities. They are also hoping that it would be start of major event in Mactan.
gAirsoft competition is one of the activities currently attractive to young professionals since they have money to spend for leisure. We considered it in connection with the Kadaugan sa Mactan festivities which is one of the shining moments of Philippine History,h Cuizon said
