The successful conduct of the SK Court of Champions - SK Edition 2026
This stands as a beautiful reminder of what a community can accomplish when people come together with a shared purpose—to uplift the youth, strengthen unity, and celebrate leadership, teamwork, and camaraderie. More than just a competition, this event became a gathering of support, trust, and collective effort from individuals who believed in the vision behind it.
With sincere and heartfelt gratitude, we acknowledge the invaluable guidance and generous support of Ma’am Norjanna G**o, RSW -NCMF Lanao Pesonnel Officer; Ma’am Rahana Ganda, JD- NCMF Davao Chief PBCRD; Atty.

Your encouragement, leadership, and quiet generosity helped bring this initiative into reality. Your belief in empowering the youth continues to inspire us to move forward and serve with dedication.
From the deepest part of my heart, I extend my gratitude to my family, encouragement, and constant presence became my strength throughout this journey.

To Mamanaya and Tito Soy, whose quiet presence and gentle guidance have always been a source of wisdom. Your support may be silent, but it is deeply felt.
To Tito Darin, who is always just one message away whenever I need advice—especially when it comes to basketball matters. Your knowledge and willingness to help have been invaluable throughout this event.
