Some 150 staff members of the league, including referees, received various products of Universal Canning Inc. , owner of Family's Brand Sardines."That is what family is for. We don't just show our compassion in good times, but more during difficult times. We treat MPBL as a family too," said Family's Brand Sardines head of marketing Tonet Roque, who is also in charge of the Alvin Pasaol-led Zamboanga team's day-to-day operations.
"We are representing the City of Zamboanga, and as the sardines capital of the Philippines, we felt the need to support the staff of the MPBL."
