CLARK FREEPORT โ Cheers, excitement, and team spirit filled the air as Yokohama Tire Philippines, Inc. (YTPI) officially opened its newly improved Basketball Court Facility on December 05, 2025. The event marked a proud milestone in YTPIโs ongoing commitment to promoting employee well-being, camaraderie, and an active workplace culture.
The celebration began with the facility blessing led by Rev. Fr. Emil Guiao of Holy Cross Parish, followed by a ribbon-cutting ceremony, formally opening the facility for employee use. The event was attended by YTPI executives and leaders, including Ms. Angelina Casasola, Vice President for Administration Division; Ms. Cynthia Valencia, Department Manager for Production Planning and Inventory Control; Mr. Rodel Dural, Department Manager for Manufacturing 2; Ms. Geraldine Bautista, Department Manager for Corporate Planning and Business Operations; and Ms. Eden Mago, Section Manager for Public Relations and General Services.
Adding excitement to the occasion was a friendly exhibition game between the Plant Operations Division and the Administration Division, with employees from various departments cheering from the sidelines. The match highlighted teamwork, sportsmanship, and strong sense of unity among Yokohama employees.
The newly upgraded basketball court offers a significant improvement from the previous facility. Employees can now enjoy an enhanced hardwood playing surface, better indoor air quality through improved ventilation, and newly constructed comfort rooms with a dedicated handwashing area. Safety and comfort were further prioritized with the installation of new backboards and basketball rings, padded walls, and wall-mounted fans, creating a more secure and enjoyable space for all.
With the opening of this modern sports facility, YTPI once again demonstrates that investing in employee wellness goes beyond the workplace. It is a celebration of health, teamwork, and a shared commitment to building a stronger, more energized YTPI community.
