MANILA -- GlobalPort is going north.
The Batang Pier will now go by the name NorthPort starting in the upcoming Governors' Cup, which is set for an August 17 tip-off.
From the neon colors, the team will now don red and yellow kits for the season-ending conference.
The Batang Pier's Twitter page officially announced the name change on Friday with the hashtags #GoNorth and #DoNotFearOnlyBelieve.
Stanley Pringle and Sean Anthony will still lead the squad, although he will be out for quite some time due to his Asian Games commitment. (PNA)
