In lieu of annual health and wellness month that aims to raise awareness in human health and living, the National Fisheries Research and Development Institute conducted the 2nd OLYMFISH with the theme “Team NFRDI, playing as one, winning as one”. The event, headed by Maria Salvacion Ferrer (a.k.a. Ma’am Baby), hosted different sports competition including basketball, volleyball, badminton as well as chess. In addition to this, games such as wiggle worm were also included in the event line up.
The four teams were allocated from the divisions at the NFRDI and the centers: Research and Ecological Assessment Division (Yellow Team); Post-harvest Division (Red Team); Administrative Division (Blue Team); and the centers from Butong, Guian and Lanao (Green Team). On the first day of the event (July 28, 2016), the OLYMFISH was opened by our Interim Deputy Executive Director, Mr. Noel C. Barut. Subsequently, each team shouted their chant and presented their muses. The yellow team garnered the best chant and the green team was awarded for their best muse. The cheerdance competition followed this, wherein the yellow team placed third. After a healthy lunch, the sports competition began starting from the basketball, followed by the volleyball and badminton. The second day (July 29, 2016) hosted all the championship games. Overall, the green team achieved the highest accumulated points earned from all the games that hailed them as the OLYMFISH 2016 Champion. First place was held by the blue team, Second place was awarded to the red team and the Third place for the yellow team. The awarding ceremonies was hosted by Mr. Christian Dallego who announced all the winners including those with special awards. The yellow team, where GFL belongs, might not have garnered the championship this year, it sure was a wonderful experience that brought us closer together bound by laughter. Congratulations yellow team!
