The country’s pioneering organization of IT writers, CyberPress, also known as the IT Journalists Association of the Philippines Inc., is celebrating its tenth anniversary this year. To kickstart the festivities, CyberPress staged a badminton tournament dubbed “First All-IT CyberPress Invitational Badminton Cup” held last March 25 at the 4th floor of Solid House Building, 1231 Chino Roces Ave (formerly Pasong Tamo Extension), Makati City.
The contest aimed to gather members of the local IT industry, which the CyberPress has been covering for the past ten years, and engaged them in a friendly competition. The tournament was carried on cable television by Destiny Cable.
Although there were no major prizes at stake, participants in the tournament vied for pride and prestige in the men’s doubles, women’s doubles, and mixed doubles. A participating team was entitled to field a total of six players composed of three females and three males.
The winners of the tournament will be cited during the CyberPress tenth anniversary party on April 28, 2006 at the Crowne Plaza Galleria in Pasig City.
Among those which have participated include Epson, EMC, HP, IBM, Innove, Microsoft, Smart Communications, SAP, Accenture, and TrendMicro. MyDestiny, which provided the venue for free, also entered in the tournament.
