UC Webmasters urge CESAFI to embrace instant replay system
The Freeman
|October 27, 2025
In the wake of a 'troubling experience' with game officials during their recent match against the Cebu Institute of Technology-University (CIT-U) Wildcats, the University of Cebu (UC) Webmasters have urged the Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation, Inc. (CESAFI) Technical Committee to retrain its officiating pool to fully embrace the Instant Replay System (IRS) in the hope of ensuring fair play and preserving the integrity of the sport.
The Webmasters beat the Wildcats again, 69-61, in the CESAFI Season 25 basketball tournament last Thursday, October 23, at the Cebu Coliseum but not without going through what coach Atty. Kernn Sesante described as a worrying incident with the referees late in the third quarter.
"During the course of the UC vs CIT-U game, it was observed that the referees appeared reluctant and resistant to the use of the Instant Replay System (IRS). More troubling, however, is that their conduct seemed to discourage teams from availing of the IRS - a mechanism specifically designed to promote fairness, accuracy, and transparency in officiating," Sesante said in a statement.
