The project, implemented by the DPWH Tacloban City District Engineering Office, was funded under the 2024 General Appropriations Act with a total contract amount of P7.9-million.
Located in Barangay 87, San Jose, Tacloban City, the 448-square-meter covered court is designed to host various sports events and school-related activities.

“This multi-purpose building will enhance the school’s capacity to hold diverse activities, both academic and extracurricular, in a safe and comfortable environment. Students will also benefit from having a proper facility for sports, which is vital for their physical development,” said District Engineer Rebecca G. Yuse.
