With a day filled with the spirit of sportsmanship and camaraderie, all participants enjoyed and had a meaningful time playing the sport with their fellows in the industry.

After giving her opening remarks, Wilcon SEVP-Chief Operating Officer Ms. Rosemarie Ong handed the checks to the representatives of the Wilcon Foundation and Crocodylus Porrosus Philippines who were this year’s beneficiaries.
