Just recently the National Athletic Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities partnered with Gameface the country's first and only media portal for hardcore basketball so that the league will be able to gain additional popularity and its games will be able to be broadcast online. In its first move to involve the students , Marlo Rustia and Joe Buduan held a meeting with students who write for their respective school newsletters which was held at the STI Head Office in Ayala, Makati. The meeting was more of an introduction to the students who are not really into forums and are not regulars of gameface. Gameface on the other hand extends its reach to 12 more member schools as they have already created a separate thread in their forum dedicated solely for the NAASCU's 12 schools.
For the record the NAASCU is composed of the University of Manila, University of Makati, , Holy Angel University, AMA Computer University, New Era University, Centro Escolar University, Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Pasay, San Sebastian College Recoletos-Cavite, St. Clare College, Informatics, Lyceum of Subic and STI College. The student sportswriters will be writing about their respective schools which will come out in the special NAASCU edition of Basketbolista.
The NAASCU will open its 8th Season on August 8, 2008 at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum with SBP Head Honcho Manny Pangilinan as one of its guests.
