He said a brief opening rites set at 8 a.m. will usher in the start of the games in boys and girls events.
Games in the open competition will yet be played on Sunday. Registration fee is pegged at P500 per team.
"Each team shall be composed of not more than 12 active players. Teams should bring photocopies of birth certificates of each of their players," Protacio said.
Teams that won't join the opening ceremony will not be allowed to compete.

Davao FA teams will represent the city to any local, regional, or national competition organized by the Philippine Football Federation (PFF).
