Rev. Fr. Anthony Morillo
NCAA Policy Board President
Dear Fr. Morillo:
This has reference to the motion to revise and/or amend existing policies of the NCAA Rules prohibiting the participation of foreign students to play in the basketball tournaments of the association.
The undersigned in behalf of San Beda College would like to manifest its strong and vigorous opposition to the motion proposed last November 12, 2010, considering that the process over which the motion was propounded and carried runs contrary to the NCAA Constitution and By-Laws, more particularly Section 7.1 which provides that any amendments to existing rules could only be done during the annual meeting and that the votes of 2/3 of all the members of the policy board is required in order to approve such revision and/or amendments.
For the record the proposition to prohibit foreign players was not specifically included in the agenda but was surreptitiously tackled as other matters. The members were not sufficiently informed ahead of the major revision as proposed hence could not effectively study the pros and cons of such.
In this regard, a meeting of the policy board is urgently requested to address this issue.
Thank you.
Sincerely yours,
Aloysius Ma. A,. Maranan, OSB
Cc: NCAA Policy Board Members
