Yuppies win 2 games; draws 2 more


Agoo, La Union - The 2K2K1 Yuppies celebrates their 2 victories during the LUFA Anniv cup last July 7, 2013 at the Marcos Sports Center of the Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University, Agoo, La Union. Both were 1-nil triumphs against the tournament's champion Pugad Sutil FC and the newcomer Agoo Montessori Voltz. 

The 7-a-side tournament was competed by 9 teams from the province of La Union wherein a 36-game round-robin format was played.

Headed by team captain Jeffreymar Malaya, the yuppies also had 2 more draws against the favored Argie and Friends FC and the Don Eufemio F. Eriguel Memorial National High School (DEFEMNHS) fc with both matches nil-nil.

Malaya, a former PMMA varsitarian tagged one of his team mates Lt. Caloy Pacubas to complete the yuppies roster and contributed winning goals for the victories the Yuppies had.

Rei Nieva, the former midfield also joined the team as the QA manager from a bakery chain enjoyed playing as a right winger during the games. Also, Engr. Gerald Suguitan joined in to replace his brother, also an engineer, Francis Suguitan. 

Because Facebook is too mainstream


Hi everyone,

we are the 2K2K1 Yuppies of the La Union Futbol Assoc Inc and we were reunited last May 4. We played football way back 1996 as the our school, DMMMSU-ELS Agoo, started the program among the 5th and 6th graders. Our debut game during that year's La Union Provincial Meet at the La Union National High School became successful as we became the champion and represented the province for the first time for the regional meet.

Unfortunately, most of the players are already about to graduate yet they continued until High School. Despite enrolled from different institutions, the former team members still filled the roster in order to join the High School regional meet from 1999-2001 and remained the La Union Champions from that time.

Years later, only few players continued playing during their college days but each one feels that football is within their hearts. Even though it is not as common as basketball or billiards, they still think it is one of the most exciting game in the world. 


So here we are, with the added body weights and higher spirits, back in the pitch to play together again. As young professionals from the different fields from engineering, entrepreneurship, allied medical fields, business outsourcing, military service and many more, not only in the country but all over the world. We are playing again as one.

2K2K1 Yuppies! Ahooo- A-hooo!
