NEW CLARK CITY - Optimistiko si Marestella Torres-Sunang na makakapagbigay ng kanyang huling tagumpay sa ihohost ng bansa na ika-30 edisyon ng Southeast Asian Games matapos sungkitin ang gintong medalya sa long jump event sa ginanap na Test Event ng athletics Sabado ng umaga sa New Clark City.

THE coming test event in athletics on Oct. 26 and 27 at the New Clark City is expected to show the Filipino tracksters' readiness and feel for the coming 30th Southeast Asian Games.

President Rodrigo Duterte has tasked the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) as one of the government’s instruments of peace while securing its role as the top fund source of the country’s elite sports program.
PSC Chairman William Ramirez disclosed that the agency has given the government’s focus on grassroots sports extra attention, too, following the earlier cancellation of the country’s hosting of the 30th Southeast Asian Games.

The rehabilitation sports facilities ordered by President Rodrigo Duterte are meant not just for the country’s hosting of the 30th Southeast Asian Games but for future tournaments as well.

Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) Chairman William “Butch” Ramirez assured this yesterday, saying that they are looking to open the government sports facilities to various local and international tourneys as well as collegiate leagues like the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) and the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA).

Ramirez said the completion of the refurbishing of the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex in Manila, Philsports Sports Complex in Pasig City and Teachers Camp in Baguio City remains on track and would be done on or before November 15.
