Published July 16, 2021 11:14am The government’s COVID-19 task force has allowed the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) to hold its 46th season slated to begin on Friday, Malacañang said. The Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF) gave the go signal on Thursday, said presidential spokesperson Harry Roque. “This, however, is subject to the strict compliance of the health and safety protocols as provided for under the guidelines of the Games and Amusement Board,” he said. Games and Amusements Board chair Baham Mitra earlier said the games would be held at the Ynares Sports Arena in Pasig City under a “closed-circuit, semi-bubble setup.”

The PBA was finally given the go-signal by the Inter-Agency Task Force to begin its 46th season on July 16 at the Ynares Sports Arena in Pasig City after months of delays due to the fluidity of the COVID-19 situation.
Games and Amusements Board chairman Baham Mitra made the announcement during the government agency’s monthly press conference yesterday, a day after the IATF gave the nod for the PBA to push through with its two-conference season under a closed-circuit setup.
PBA commissioner Willie Marcial, in a separate presscon, admitted it was a difficult process after he made a presentation before the IATF’s technical working group a few days ago.
