25 A. Streamlining of Events
26
27 Dr. TRoquillo suggested streamlining the events to be played for the national games. With
28 this suggestion, Dr. MDela Cruz said that this would mean lesser expense, lesser time, and
29 lesser hazard.
30
31 Dr. MDela Cruz curtailing the 20 events identified during the first technical committee
32 meeting by creating packet events.
33
34 He explained that packet events will be conducted the year after the conduct of the national
35 games. The events to be removed from the 20 events will be held thru packets which will be
36 help separately from the National SCUAA; depending on the agreed schedule, one or more
37 events may be grouped and held together (as packets).
38
39 He added that this way, there will be a continuous exercise of SCUAA activities since PASUC
40 already decided to conduct the National SCUAA every other year.
41
42 Dr. LVergara said that there could be concerns with regard to logistics and budget. He also
43 said that the regional SCUAA they conduct has layers. He expounded that the winners in the
44 regional level were the only ones allowed to play for the national games. However, the
45 suggested packet events would be like invitational and it would be open for all; an athlete may
46 join representing his/her SUC, and not necessarily the region.
47
48 Further, he said that the packet events would be a good opportunity for SUCs and the athletes
49 who would want to join.
50
51 Finally, Dr. LVergara said that with these changes, there may be an additional regional event
52 to be conducted in one year.
53
54 Given these forgoing, the group agreed to reduce the number of events for the national games,
55 and relegate the other events into packets.
