Jean Henri Lhuillier, President of the Amateur Softball Association of the Philippines (ASAPHIL) and CEO of Cebuana Lhuillier, is elated with the thought of the girl’s participation in the world stage. "The RP Blu Girls are a different kind of breed, and I am confident that they will bring excellence and pride to the Philippines as they strive to pursue greatness on the world stage.”

The RP Blu Girls are set to compete against world-class teams, including World No. 1 USA, World No. 5 Australia, World No. 7 Canada, World No. 10 Mexico, and World No. 21 Ireland, all of whom are grouped together in Group C.
