Eagle 25 proudly partnered with the Batang Gilas Pampanga team as one of the official sponsors for the Milcu Sports Got Skills Basketball Tournament, held from February 3 to 7, 2025. Organized by the Samahang Basketball ng Pilipinas (SBP), the tournament attracted over 272 participants, primarily young athletes aged 16.
As part of the sponsorship, Eagle 25 provided Team Batang Gilas with essential products to support the players throughout the competition. This included 25 pieces of Multi Gel, a topical gel for muscle and joint pain relief, and Ringer Solution to ensure proper hydration during the grueling matches. The sponsorship was not just about promoting Eagle 25 products, but also about supporting the team in their journey to fulfilling their basketball dreams.
Led by Coach Redentor Bautista, the Batang Gilas Pampanga team performed admirably during the elimination rounds, securing three wins out of their games. Despite a hard-fought quarterfinal match, where they lost in overtime, the team’s performance was a testament to their hard work and resilience. Although they didn’t reach the grand finals, their journey through the tournament was a source of pride for the team and their supporters.
The collaboration also proved beneficial for Eagle 25, as the sponsorship provided valuable brand recognition, especially given the strong online presence of Milcu Sports and the live coverage of the tournament. With a substantial number of followers on Facebook, Milcu helped elevate the visibility of Eagle 25’s support for the team. The Batang Gilas team actively promoted Eagle 25 products on their platforms, further amplifying the brand’s reach
Additionally, the team’s uniforms, sponsored by Sir Japeth Aguilar, prominently featured the Eagle 25 logo, which was visible during the tournament’s live coverage. This allowed Eagle 25 to gain additional exposure, not just from the on-court action, but also through ongoing promotions during the team’s training camps and youth tournaments.
Conclusion:
The sponsorship of Team Batang Gilas by Eagle 25 at the Milcu Sports Got Skills Basketball Tournament was a resounding success. Not only did it provide essential support to the players, helping them perform at their peak, but it also allowed Eagle 25 to gain significant brand recognition through its association with a high-profile sports team. The exposure gained through Milcu’s live coverage and the active promotion by the players further enhanced Eagle 25’s presence in the market.
