San Beda Flag Football Association hosted the first pre-season game of Arena Ball Philippines last January 30, 2009 in San Beda Open Field. It was the Bandits and the Juggernauts who tackled the ball out for a touchdown.

Arena Ball Philippines is the first “Tackle or American Football League” here in the Philippines. Arenaball or tackle football is the only team sport that involves legal, deliberate and controlled physical contacts such as takedowns, tackles, pushing and pulling. Think of the players as modern day gladiators battling it out to get the ball to the opponent’s territory or end zone and score. This offers hardcore action and satisfaction for sports fans and enthusiasts!

One of the reason why the San Beda Flag Football Association hosted this sports event is to expose the unique flavor of this raw and physical sports to the public. [More Photos]
