MANILA, Philippines — Will the Blackwater “practice” incident derail the PBA’s targeted resumption of non-scrimmage training on July 22? The other teams were reportedly also miffed at the Blackwater activity that might imperil the projected return to training of them all. “Team is in high spirits,” Blackwater coach Nash Racela told The STAR yesterday. First off, every team personnel must undergo swab testing prior to the practices. GAB had launched its own investigation “to determine whether Blackwater has violated the IATF Omnibus Guidelines when they allegedly resumed training sans approval of the JAO.”
