“Support sa bawat isa. Dapat teamwork sa pagturo sa isa’t-isa, kaya tulong-tulong gumaling kada isa. Ang input ng bawat isa ay importante.”

RETURNING VETERAN

Hellari Calvo

Despite being only a sophomore, Hellari Calvo has garnered much praise for her potential to able to compete in higher level tourneys. Showing flashes of brilliance in her first stint the UAAP, Calvo is now looking to establish herself as a stalwart for Ateneo.

NEW RECRUITS

Beatrice Chua

In her early years, Freshman Beatrice Chua showed great potential as a trainee of late Ateneo coach Floyd Lobaton. In St. Jude Catholic School, Chua was part of the high school girls team that finished 3rd in the FCAAF Inter-Scholastic Table Tennis Championship in 2015.

Patricia Kime

Patricia Kime is another freshman recruit who came in highly recommended by Coach Mario Brevia. Kime will be reunited with fellow St. Paul College, Pasig product, veteran Trina Cruz, and look to contributing to the team right away this UAAP season.

COACH’S CORNER

Mario Breiva

Three years on as head coach after replacing the late Floyd Lobaton, Coach Mario Breiva aims to improve the team and program after last place finishes in both divisions last season.
Hindi kami completo dahil gumaduate ng iba pero pipilitin namin maglaban pa rin kahit kulang kami.
