PINOY NETTERS...through the years by: Albin Guinto

After what we've been through Pinoy Netters Club 102 is now moving on its 3rd year anniversary, and prior to this we will have our Induction of Officers this coming June 2005. I couldn't imagine that we've made history by believing in ourselves that we can make it... considering the obstacles, trials... but one thing is sure. If there is faith in your heart, dedication to make a difference nothing is impossible. We believe we can fly.. thanks for all the support... PINOY NETTERS is here to stay...for the benefits of tennis enthusiast and for the less priviledged children of our nation....SALAMAT PO KA PINOY!!!
