Superseded byPhilippine Bowling Federation

The Philippine Bowling Congress Inc. or more popularly known as Philippine Bowling Congress and PBC was the governing body for tenpin bowling in the Philippines from 1977 to 2016. The Philippine Bowling Federation Inc. PBF replaced it as the appointed member of the International Bowling Federation (IBF), Asian Bowling Federation (ABF), and Philippine Olympic Committee (POC).[1] in 2016.

History

[edit]

The POC member organization PBC registered with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) on September 24, 1975, with a 25-year corporate term and Col. Nereo C. Andolong as its president and representative to the POC. He was elected the second president of the Philippine Olympic Committee in 1977. Col. Andolong became a director and president of PBC through Magallanes Bowling Association (MBA), founded with Vicente Sotto III.[2][3][4]

Philippine Bowling Congress SEC registration was officially revoked in 2003 when it allowed its corporate term to expire without complying with law requirements to extend its corporate period of existence stated in the articles of incorporation. However, it continued its usual business as the member association recognized by the governing bodies. Despite this, a new organization bearing a confusingly similar name, Philippine Bowling Congress (PBCI) Inc., was registered with SEC in January 2009 and assumed the role of PBC without valid authorization. This confusingly similar corporation never applied for membership and was never officially recognized by any governing body; instead, only the original member, Philippine Bowling Congress, remained affiliated. POC identified the Officers of PBCI from 2009 to 2016 as that of PBC. Per Philippine law, these are two different entities. Philippine Bowling Congress membership with the POC was also eventually revoked.

In early 2016, after the resignation of the newly elected president and vice president of PBCI, the Philippine Olympic Committee established a caretaker body that will temporarily handle the affairs of Philippine bowling, and POC appointed secretary general Steve Hontiveros who was the last president of the defunct Philippine Bowling Congress Inc.[5]

The Philippine Bowling Congress, Inc. was registered with the Securities Exchange Commission on September 24, 1975 S.E.C. Reg. No. 63697. Its first official president was Nereo C. Andolong who was also the second president of the Philippine Olympic Committee from 1977-1980.

  • In 1985, PBC amended the composition of the Board of Directors;
  • Col. Irwin Ver did not complete his term and was succeeded by his Vice President Stephen C. Hontiveros in 1986.
  • In 1988 amended Art. III of the Articles of Incorporation;
  • In 1993 amended the term of the president to four years, to synchronize it with the term of the POC election, all other officers were for two years and was scheduled after the 1994 term of three years. The position of Chairman was also added, the Chairmen who served in 1994 were Senator Franklin Drillon (then Justice Secretary) and former PSC Commissioner Philip Ella Juico (PBL Commissioner);
  • In October 1997, the Amendment Committee headed by Arch. Edgar Reformado moved to change the manner of election in the By-Laws (to trustee election) among others and extension of corporate term in the Articles of Incorporation. However, PBC allowed its corporate term to expire without complying with the requirements provided by law for the extension of its corporate term of existence during the presidency of Arch. Ric Poblete.
  • Stephen C. Hontiveros was elected president of Fédération Internationale des Quilleurs, the governing body of Tenpin Bowling, 2003-2007.
