Another Philippine team is bound to compete in a FIBA sanctioned event; our Batang Gilas U18 squad is currently in Doha, Qatar to represent us in the 2014 FIBA Asia U18 Championship which will start on August 19 and end on August 28. No words yet if their games will be broadcast on TV. The team will be spearheaded by coach Jamike Jarin who also coached our U17 team that finished 15th place in the 2014 FIBA U17 World Championship. Philippine basketball legend Benjie Paras is also in tow to help the team. His son, Kobe, is part of the roster and is expected to be one of our top performers when the competition starts.
