SYKES bags major awards in Cebu Inter-BPO Volleyball opening

SYKES Philippines won major awards in the opening of the 2018 Cebu Inter-BPO Volleyball League (CIBPOVL) last August 11 at the Cebu City Sports Center.

This year’s CIBPOVL features 16 teams in the men’s division and 10 in the distaff side.

Before the start of the games, an opening ceremony took place starting off with the parade of athletes from the different Cebu-based business process outsourcing (BPO) companies.

SYKES took home major awards with Idol Gorpido and Crystal Diolan adjudged Mr. and Ms. CIBPOVL. SYKES also won the Best in Uniform and was crowned champion in the Groove! Street Dance Competition.

Spearheaded by the Cebu Inter-BPO Volleyball Club and the Cebu City Call Center Program of the Office of the Mayor in association with Mactan Poona Zone, the tournament serves as a stress-reliever for employees of BPO companies in Cebu. Aside from that, organizers also want to establish camaraderie, promote physical fitness and showcase the diversity of the BPO industry through this sporting spectacle.

In 1997, SYKES opened its doors in the Philippines, becoming the first multinational call center to operate in the country. It is also the first call center to venture out of Manila, opening the first call center in Cebu.
