Gilas women ready for Jones Cup wars

Gilas Pilipinas Women will use its stint in the 44th William Jones Cup in Taiwan to gauge where its level of play is at ahead of the FIBA Asia Women’s Cup. Building up their chemistry and improving their skills are the main goals of the Filipinas when they march into action in the tournament slated from 1 to 6 July. Assistant coach Julie Amos told DAILY TRIBUNE that the Taiwan stop will allow them to see the areas that the team would need to address going to the FIBA Asia Cup. “The Jones Cup will be first, then, a few days later, will be the FIBA Asia. So, at least we’ll have time to adjust for our needs for FIBA Asia,” Amos said. “So, that will be a good preparation for the team. We’ll enhance more as we build up as a unit.” The FIBA Asia Women’s Cup will run from 13 to 20 July in Shenzhen, China.
