'City of Smiles' to host nat'l grassroots tournament next year
Batang Pinoy is going back to where it all began and it will surely be greeted by a warm welcome and big smile for its 2026 edition.
That, after the Philippine Sports Commission has formally announced Bacolod City - of the famous chicken inasal and Masskara Festival - as the next host of the premiere grassroots program.
Interestingly, Bacolod City was where the very first Batang Pinoy was held back in 1999.
General Santos City has formally turned over the hosting to Bacolod City during the closing ceremony of the colorful and festive 2025 Batang Pinoy at the Antonio Acharon Sports Complex on Thursday, Oct. 30 here.
