THE 2012 Regional Collegiate Games of the Private Schools Athletic Association (PRISAA) Region I will be held on November 5-8 at the Narciso Ramos Sports and Civic Center in Lingayen, with simple opening ceremonies in the afternoon of November 5.
This year’s competitions will be participated in by six PRISAA Divisions – Metro Dagupan, Metro San Carlos, La Union, Laoag City-Ilocos Norte, Pangasinan I and II, and Ilocos Sur – represented by some 1,000 athletes, officials and coaches, competing in 14 individual and team events.
