NINE teams have registered to play in the 2006 World Organized Rocball High School League.
The first three teams that signed up were the Ballers, Kich Fairo and Mwaliyas. The names of the other teams will be announced later.
The league will start either later this month or early next month.
Last year?s heavy hitter Shane Yamada will be joining the Mwaliyas again and he hopes to lead the team to their third straight title.
The teams that joined last year?s WOR were Black Magic, Malat, Lagooners, Caropino, Ochobu, Mwaliyas, Just for Fun, and Brothers & Sisters.
In last year?s best-of-five finals series, the Mwaliyas took back-to-back titles after beating Ochobu in Game 5 at the Marianas High School Gym.
In Game 1, Ochobu stunned the Mwaliyas in overtime, 83-57.
The Mwaliyas tied the series at 1-all bouncing back in Game 2, 53-52.
Ochobu was a win away from thrashing the Mwaliyas after it took Game 3 with an easy win, 62-37.
But Ochobu failed to complete the job early, as it was crushed by the Mwaliyas, who pulled off a 67-43 juiced out win in Game 4.
The Mwaliyas dominated Ochobu in Game 5 with a 79-67 win and successfully defended their title.
This year, teachers are said to be interested in forming a team and are trying to make a big push against the students.
