A TOTAL of 38 teams from all over the country are set to see action in the Suzuki-national under-23 football tournament.
Philippine Football Federation president Mariano �Nonong� Araneta Jr. said the tournament was made possible after the PFF entered into an agreement with Suzuki Philippines to hold the event during a signing ceremony held yesterday at the Football House in Pasig City.
The tournament will be participated in by teams from Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao and the National Capital Region. Teams will battle to make the semifinals of the group stage eliminations, which start March 29 in Ozamis City.
�We have already agreed on the format, and when the tournament will begin,� said Araneta, who formally received a check worth P3.2 million from Suzuki Philippines president Satoshi Uchida in support of the tournament.
About 18 teams will take part in the Luzon stage, 13 teams will see action in the Mindanao eliminations and five in the Visayas. Two teams will represent the National Capital Region. Peter Atencio
