This is one of the most awaited events of the year and because of the pandemic, things have not been as normal as they should be. Ginebra San Miguel won't be beat so they now are launching the 2021 Ginebra Jersey and Cap Collection which was done through a live stream on their official Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/BarangayGinebra. This is their first virtual launch dedicated to all their consumers and appearing during the event are Ginebra superstars #5 LA Tenorio, #6 Scottie Thompson, #47 Mark Caguioa, #11 Stanley Pringle and #25 Japeth Aguilar. Participating products include GSM Blue, Ginebra San Miguel Premium Gin, Vino Kulafu, Ginebra San Miguel, Primera Light Brandy, and Anejo Gold Rum. Ginebra has always believed in the Filipino spirit and through this campaign, they want you to embody the "Bagong Tapang" we need to survive this pandemic and become the worthy people our loved ones believe in when times are rough.

Ginebra also launched their own website for this particular campaign over at https://1ginebranation.com. It's got information about their beverages, some basketball games, photos of previous Ginebra teams which have been collected through the years and the full mechanics on how to get the Jersey and Caps that are part of this collection.
Emmanuel Macalalag the COO for Spirits of San Miguel Food and Beverage Inc. and GM of Ginebra says "The need for unity to rise beyond challenges, this is what Ginebra and the Gin Kings embodies. The passion for the game, the never die spirit can serve as an inspiration for many Filipinos. We partnered with Gawad Kalinga to help Filipinos, as every Jersey and Cap claimed will support programs of this organization."
The challenge of the bubble conference of the PBA also was hard for all the professional basketball players and the Ginebra Kings is also part of that. The experience of doing the bubble made them even closer as it forced them to live together for the duration of the conference. They even dedicated all their games to their loved ones, and to the thousands of fans they have across the country. The players also are hopeful that everything would be back to normal, and wish for everyone's safety.
Now how do you get the Jersey and Caps? What do you need to do to get one?
You need to collect 6 Caps of any participating brand under Ginebra San Miguel and pay 100 for the shirt and 150 for the cap to get them. I saw how the players wore them during the launch and I'm eyeing the Caguioa Jersey and Cap myself <3 You then can get it via participating Puregold branches nationwide!
As you can see it's so easy to actually get one, they really made it that way so they could help the organization they are supporting and as a THANK YOU for all their fans. Now what else is there to do but to get your own products, use the caps and exchange them for the collectible Jerseys and Caps plus the corresponding amount you have to pay for. Just the thought of it going to the NGO makes me so happy that they thought about it during this time. They chose to help, and that is even worth more than their recent championship!
Congratulations Ginebra!
