JHI, STATS run it back with UPMBT, extend support to other Fighting Maroons


Wazzup Pilipinas!?



Januarius Holdings Inc. (JHI) and subsidiary STATS Technical Sportswear again threw their support behind the UP Men’s Basketball Team (UPMBT) for UAAP Season 87, ensuring that they will continue to sponsor the team’s overseas training camps like the ones they have had in Serbia, Korea, the US and Japan.

It will also stay as the team’s official outfitter, a role it has played since UAAP Season 80.

JHI chairman and CEO JJ Atencio signed the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with UP Office for Athletics and Sports Development (UP OASD) Director Bo Perasol, nowheretogobutUP chairman Jed Eva, and UPMBT manager Atty. Agaton Uvero on August 16, at the Executive House in UP Diliman.





As part of the renewed partnership, the UPMBT will also get to use JHI and STATS’ Vald performance equipment that will accurately assess the athletes’ progress and performance that will lead to accurate, data-informed decisions.

“It has been gratifying to see how the players are preparing for Season 87 with their recent training camp in Korea where they faced the top ball clubs there. We want to keep them battle-ready physically, mentally, and emotionally. That’s why we decided to also provide them with a state-of-the-art equipment that will help manage and improve their performance and well-being,” Atencio said.

At the event, Atencio also announced that they will partner with the UP OASD to provide training and official game jerseys to other UP varsity teams.

“First of all, we want to thank JJ for continuing to believe in our basketball program and for supporting the Fighting Maroons all these years. Now, he has even extended his support to other UP varsity teams,” Perasol said.

“We have seen how big the impact is on our players and teams to have the backing of sponsors like JJ and the support of the community. Our teams will be so proud to wear those uniforms and represent the university in the UAAP and other tournaments. We are all grateful to JHI and STATS for the help they extend to our athletes,” the OASD Director added.

“JJ Atencio has long been a believer and a partner of the Fighting Maroons. He’s been supporting the team’s overseas camps since 2017 and we appreciate him very much. He is not just a supporter, he is a treasured friend,” said UPMBT manager Atty. Uvero
