Manila Chooks TM hold first practice in Doha

Manila Chooks TM at the Al-Gharafa Sports Complex.

Manila Chooks TM finally got a chance to work on their game on court at the Al-Gharafa Sports Complex on Wednesday, where coronavirus protocols reigned supreme.

Strict measures were put into place by organizers, with the competition scheduled to take place in a couple of days. Among those is the inability to cross train with other teams, something Manila Chooks in its previous iterations as Pasig Chooks and Balanga Chooks were able to do last year.

Conditions were sizzling, as expected with the competition taking place in the Middle East. Skipper Alvin Pasaol shares, "Sobrang init," with the temperatures during their training session reaching a high of 85 degrees Fahrenheit.

Even with the conditions as they are, the team remains confident that will impress in Doha for the Masters event.

Pasaol says, "Siguro nasa eighty-percent kami ngayon. Maganda naman yung practice kanina kasi nagawa naman namin yung gusto namin."

He adds, "By Friday, ready na kami."

The team is grouped alongside top-ranked Liman and hosts Lusail and will face off late Friday.
