Beyond the Medals (Part 2)

We need a pathway that is visible, accessible and continuous. We need a grassroots sports program could help identify talent outside the major urban centers.

The aim is not merely to find the next champion. It is to build a sustainable system capable of finding and developing champions year after year.

Reform Philippine Sports stands committed in support of the country’s efforts to host and compete in the incoming SEA Games.
