What makes Ormoc City deserving in hosting this year's EVRAA meet.


What makes ORMOC CITY deserving in hosting EVRAA 2019?

The Ormoc sports governing body or the Deped Ormoc recognises the wider value of sports in our youthful society including improving health, tourism, employability and it’s important role in boosting our economy. The City will support the grassroots to make every sport valued. In schools and communities, we will invest in equipment, sports halls, modern pitches and provide incentives, scholarships for talented sportsmen and women to pursue higher education thus the establishment of the Ormoc City Regional Sports Academy. Our government will thus deal with the necessary amendments of the existing sports laws to allow them accommodate modern sports needs and innovations in sports governance.

*The City shall reset the crude measurement for sports, from just aiming for only medals to participation and ability to influence the world of sport through governance. There will be a stable investment in sports and schools for academic and professional studies in sports.

*Successfully delivering sporting events has a positive impact. We shall build more sports infrastructure so that we put Ormoc in a better position of competing for the hosting of regional, national, and international sports events.

*By using our power of government to support and promote our sport officials to improve governance. We shall ensure that through collaboration and sharing best practice, we all work towards upholding the integrity of sport and to ensure transparency and accountability in sports governance.

Thank you Ormoc Mayor Richard Gomez for the support!

Senator Joseph Victor “JV” Ejercito on Thursday urged lawmakers to pass the measure that seeks to grant civil service eligibility to Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) councilors. Ejercito, in filing Senate Bill No. 2185, or the bill that seeks to amend the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) Reform Act of 2015 (Republic Act No. 10742), said he believed youth councilors should also be granted civil service eligibility.

He said that based on the Civil Service Rules, a Barangay Official Eligibility, which is equivalent to Career Service Sub-professional Eligibility, is a privilege granted to barangay officials, including SK chairpersons.
