Tuburan Siglakas 2026 : Brgy. Colonia VS. Brgy. 5

Tuburan is a town in the midwest of the province of Cebu here in the Philippines, ever since I have been assigned to teach here in Tuburan National High School, we relocated and built our own little life here.

My son found new friends and my partner also found new pals and found new connections.

Tuburan town's annual fiesta is June 12 of each year and as early as April, they host their annual SIGKALAS, sports games contest in preparation for their town fiesta.

The town of Tuburan has a total of 54 barangays. Imagine how massive the land mass of their beautiful town is.

54 Barangays under Tuburan are competing towards gaining the championship which I think would be around June or maybe the last month of May since the town fiesta is June 12,2026.

This is my son's first ever Siglakas experience because he just transferred here in Tuburan last year and he started to stay here way back June 2025.

For me, I am now so happy that my son lives here with me here in Tuburan because I really struggled a lot back when he lived in our original hometown in Tabogon, I would travel hours just to attend his Parent-Teacher meetings. But now that he lives with me here in Tuburan, and I have transferred him here in Tuburan Central Elementary School also, I am at ease that we get to spend time together and I no longer have the need to travel quite a distance and some time.

My son chose number 29 as her jersey number because his original number in all of his jerseys used to be 16 which is my birthday, but he had a teammate who already got the number 16 and basketball leagues like Siglakas does not allow players to have the same jersey numbers. Therefore, he chose the number 29 which is his birthdate.

Since we are registered voters of Brgy. Colonia, Tuburan, Cebu, my partner was chosen to be the team's coach. During weekends, he works as a basketball referee also. But now, he is the team's coach.

I am really happy that they got involved in fun sports activities so that it can serve as their exercise and also a chance to socialize with other people.

Especially my son, I'd rather see him playing sports than staying at home and just playing with Roblox or any other gadgets.

Snippets of their basketball game Brgy. Colonia VS. Brgy.5

It was such a fun game although they lost against 10 points, but the important thing is that they all did their best in the game.

Basketball is a perfect game to train your child's teamwork skills. It is also a physical game and involves a lot of running, I just pray my son is safe in every game he plays because he enjoys it so much.

To sum it all up, they all had a group photo and still congratulated everyone for a job well done.

They have scheduled another basketball training which they normally do during the weekends. It is a training intended for the players for them to be well-conditioned, body-trained and mentally-trained also.

I am indeed so proud of my son. Still, congratulations Brgy. Colonia on your first ever game for TUBURAN SIGLAKAS 2026.

Aja! 💪🏻👏🏻
