TELEPERFORMANCE, the world’s leading provider of outsourced omnichannel customer experience management services, recently won two inter-BPO basketball league championships – the 2016 BPO Classics in Metro Manila and the Inter-Call Center and Commercial Employees basketball league in Bacolod City.

The Teleperformance Luzon basketball team dominated the BPO Classics tournament, besting six other BPO companies during the 2016 season.

The Teleperformance roster of 17 players rallied against the Global Payments’ team during the championship game held at the Makati Coliseum.

Demonstrating superb offensive play, Teleperformance led from first to fourth quarter against Global Payments.

In the BPO Classics volleyball tournament, Team Teleperformance also finished strong, clinching the first runner-up for both men’s and women’s categories.

Meanwhile, the Teleperformance Bacolod basketball team bagged a thrilling come-from-behind victory during the 2016 ICCE basketball finals against the Focus Direct team.

With 15 cagers in its roster, Teleperformance showcased solid performance to overcome five other BPO teams in the 11th season. At the finals, the team trailed closely for the first three quarters but claimed the lead in the fourth quarter and ended the game with a final score of 94-84. 

With 27 points, top scorer Alben Bunol was named MVP, while Rowel Sales contributed 18 points and Mark Wendell Celestial added 16 points. The Teleperformance Bacolod basketball team reclaimed its title after giving way to Panasiatic Solutions last year.

Both the Metro Manila and Bacolod sports events were organized to foster camaraderie and teamwork through friendly sports competition among BPO companies. 

Teleperformance vice president for human resource Rachel Majito-Cacabelos extended all-out support to all the teams. “I would like to congratulate all the gallant members of our Luzon and Visayas basketball and volleyball teams for representing Teleperformance with much passion and pride. May these victories bring inspiration to continue our outstanding performance and teamwork both on the court and within our workplace,” said Cacabelos.
