CAL POLY POMONA
BARKADA
PRESENTS…
SPORTSFEST XXI
“Heart of a Champion”
REGISTRATION PACKET
Revised: 8/12/2009
Dear Sports Teams,
For 2010, Cal Poly Pomona’s Barkada proudly presents the 21st annual Sportsfest. The event will be held during the weekend of March 19th, 20th, and 21st. All sporting events will be held in Cal Poly Pomona’s facilities. Basketball and volleyball games will be held in indoor gymnasiums. Tennis will be played on outdoor tennis courts. Softball and flag football will be played on our fields located adjacent to the main gymnasium. Bowling will be held in a bowling alley at a reasonable distance from Cal Poly Pomona. The location will be announced the week of Sportsfest.
We will do our best to try and accommodate everyone. Game schedules are tentative as we try to create good competition and receive as much teams as possible; however, there are no guarantees. The schedules will be available the week of Sportsfest at the earliest, as we await teams turning in late registration.
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT YOU ARE REPRESENTATIVES OF YOUR SCHOOL.
ANY CONFLICTS WITH ANY OF OUR STAFF, REFEREES OR PERSONNEL MAY
CAUSE ALL OF YOUR GAMES TO BE FORFEITED WITHOUT REFUND AND
ADMISSION TO FUTURE REGISTRATIONS AT SPORTSFEST MAY BE DENIED.
Included is the registration packet, which contains all prices, deadlines, and forms. Registration will be on a first-come first-serve basis, based on payment. Due dates will be, once again, strictly enforced this year. Please return your registration packets A.S.A.P. with payments (in full) in order to reserve a position for your school. Applications with insufficient funds/payments will NOT be accepted. ALSO, ALL INFORMATION IN THIS PACKET ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE, AND WE WILL TRY OUR BEST TO INFORM YOU OF THE CHANGES IMMEDIATELY. Considering last year’s success in turnout, reservations will be filling up fast, so please sign up early to avoid being added on the waiting list. Registration Packets turned in along with payments in full will be given first priority.
Filipino Rule
As we have in past Sportsfests, we implement a rule in which a certain number of players on each team must be Filipino. For the most part, we ask at least 75% of the team in play must be Filipino; this is not including Tennis and Bowling, which requires 100% Filipino turnout. This rule has been in effect throughout the history of Sportsfest, which this year is in its 21st year of existence. Sportsfest was created as an event where Filipino clubs could gather and play sports. Today, it has grown into one of the biggest sports tournaments on the West Coast. To help keep the integrity of why this event was created, the Filipino Rule is implemented, not as a way to discriminate against other ethnicities or isolate Filipinos from other races, but to ensure the ideals of this event.
This rule, however, has been very difficult to define and enforce. We cannot look at a person and be able to distinguish their full ethnicity right away. This rule is based on an “honor of trust”. We are not going to ask for any documents stating one’s ethnicity, but it is to our belief that teams are following this rule. Also, as stated in the rules, it is up to the opposing team to decide whether a team is gaining an unfair advantage by not following the Filipino rule; this process is taken up through a protest, which is explained in the rules. Again, we are in no way trying to exclude anyone based on racist or discriminatory principles.
We are doing our best to work with everyone and ensure a high level of competition, but also allow for a fun environment. Please also be patient, as the registration process for the entire tournament lasts until the day of Sportsfest. If you have any further questions, please contact your respective coordinator for your sport or myself. We look forward to working with you soon, and see you at Sportsfest XXI!
Thank you,
Reginald “RJ” Tongol
