The competition may be coming to a close, but the spirit of Sto. Niño continues to take the spotlight.

After days of grit, discipline, and determination at the South Cotabato Provincial Athletic Association (SCPAA) Meet 2026, another exciting moment awaits—one that calls for confidence, presence, and pride.

The stage is set.
The spotlight is yours.
Now, go out there and make us all proud!
