04 Oct 2022
Representing the Philippines, Davao Aguilas FC emerged as the Boys 15s category champion of the JSSL International Football Competition held in Singapore from September 2 – 4, 2022. Three members of the team are Ateneo de Manila Junior High School students: Andres Dumlao (Cardoner 9-Baena), Karl Molina (Montserrat/10-Maunoir), and Tiago Remulla (La Storta/9-Favre).

The Davao Aguilas made it to the cup knock-out round after finishing 1st place in Group A with an undefeated record of W-2 D-2 L-0 without ever conceding a goal.
During the playoffs, the Aguilas won every match including the finals against ANZA Socceroos (from Australia),1-0. It was a breathtaking moment during the extension of the finals when Karl Molina, the team’s leading scorer, delivered the winning goal to seal the victory.
Facing bigger, taller, and stronger opponents, our boys used their speed and efficiency to win. Pivotal to Davao Aguilas FC’s victory was the strong defense of central back defender Andres Dumlao, and the agility of leftwing forward Karl Molina and rightwing forward Tiago Remulla.
