Bohol will be hosting the 2nd Philippine International Dragon Boat competition for the first time.
It is an occasion that will not only excite the Boholano sports fans but will also offer opportunities for enterprising Boholanos.
Aside from around 10 teams from around the Philippines and two to three teams from Bohol, three to five foreign teams will also be entering the competition truly making the event international in scope.
