    THEY’RE world champions, but members of Team Manila remain kids at heart.

    For a job well done regaining the Pony International World Series Championship, the Big City Bets were treated to a visit of Disneyland in California.

    Team Manila gets Disney treat

    The entire U-18 champion team travelled back to Los Angeles from McAllen, Texas a day after winning back the crown following a 6-0 shutout of Glory Adkins Bejar in the title game.

    The Disneyland trip was courtesy of the Filipino community in LA led by former Philippine Blu Girl Jenny De Jesus-Cabrera.

    Based in LA for a long time now, De Jesus-Cabrera once served as assistant coach to the late baseball and softball great Filomeno ‘Boy’ Codinera.

    She also takes care of the team and the rest of Team Manila contingent including Manila Little League president and coach Che Borromeo and team official Rolando ‘Rollie’ Evangelista upon arrival from Texas.

    The team will stay a few more days in the US before departing for Manila next week.
