Partnership with ABA Global
As the official draft league of the American Basketball Association (ABA) Global, NIFA continues to bridge opportunities between Philippine basketball talent and international professional leagues. This crypto rewards program represents another innovative step in preparing our athletes for the evolving landscape of professional sports and financial technology.
Gratitude to Bangko Maharlika
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our patron, Bangko Maharlika, whose generous support makes these Universal Basic Income (UBI) rewards possible for all NIFA participants and game officials. This partnership demonstrates a shared commitment to empowering young athletes and supporting their dual pursuit of academic and athletic excellence.
What Participants Can Expect
The ceremony will feature:
- Individual crypto rewards for all players, coaches, and team staff to support both academic and athletic endeavors
- Institutional grants for schools to strengthen their athletic programs
- Educational sessions on Universal Basic Income (UBI) and emerging technologies
- Practical knowledge about the MHLK rewards ecosystem and its applications
Leadership and Vision
The ceremony will be presided over by key officials from both Bangko Maharlika and NIFA, highlighting the collaborative effort behind this innovative initiative. This event represents more than just an awards ceremony—it’s an investment in the future of our athletes and the evolution of collegiate sports support systems.
Important Reminder
All athletes and coaching staff are encouraged to attend personally, as certificates will be distributed individually and cannot be collected by representatives. This ensures that each participant receives proper recognition for their contributions to the league.
Looking Forward
This crypto rewards program marks a significant milestone in NIFA’s mission to provide comprehensive support for our basketball community. By embracing innovative financial technologies and maintaining our partnership with ABA Global, we continue to create pathways for our athletes’ success both on and off the court.
The ceremony promises to be a celebration of athletic achievement, technological innovation, and the bright future ahead for Philippine collegiate basketball.
