Manila Ice Vixens were featured on “Bandila” '04/4/08
(Visited 8695 times)The Manila Ice Vixens were featured on Bandila’s “Astig” segment last night. “Bandila”, which is the Filipino word for flag, also alludes to the term “banner story,” or top news of the day. It airs at ABS-CBN, Monday to Thursday 11:00-11:30 p.m. & Friday 11:30 p.m.-12:00 midnight. The show featured women ice hockey players (my team, the MIV) and how we started playing ice hockey. As quoted by yours truly, “I’m proud to be a Filipina, representing ice hockey especially in other countries….”. Since we live in a tropical country and since ice hockey is a winter sport, we can actually play and can compete with other countries where the climate is cold. Also, it is growing fast here in the Philippines and more kids especially girls are beginning to appreciate this unique sport.

Most people know that ice hockey is a male-dominated sport, so we (MIV) want to break that misconception that “Ice hockey is a sport for guys only”. Actually, anyone can play hockey. Boys and girls, young and old (no age limit, as long as you’re still physically fit) you can still try it out. Anyhow, more stories about MIV… H-E-R-E.
You can catch the Ice Vixens every Wednesday at 9:45pm till 11:45pm and every Saturday at 10:45 to 12:45am in SM Megamall ice skating rink.
