1st Kabataan Iwas-Droga: Sports tournament Results

BNHS Molino and Tabing-Dagat, Zapote and MaboloES, big winners in the 1stPSC KID SOS Tournament

Young Badminton players from Bacoor National High School (Molina Main) and Zapote Elementary School dominated the sport while BNHS – Tabing-Dagat and Mabolo ES topped table tennis during the 1^st Kabataan Iwas-Droga: Start on Sports tournament held on November 11-12, 2017 at the Theresian School of Cavite. Gawaran Campus of BNHS came up big in Chess for the Secondary level while Aniban ES and Niog ES fought tooth and nail in the Elementary division. 158 student-athletes from 14 public schools of Bacoor participated in the competition that strengthens the Philippine Sports Commission’s sports development from the grassroots.

Prior to the tournament, a 4-week sports clinic was conducted at STRIKE Gymnasium – Bacoor City Hall from July 21 to August 13. Over 600 kids from 38 public schools joined the weekend trainings which were made possible through the collaboration of the Commission, local city of Bacoor thru Mayor Lani Mercado, and the Department of Education.

Commissioner Arnold Agustin added that the program also coincides with the President’s campaign against drug abuse. ‘We want the kids to use their free time in worthwhile activities – be fit and healthy, have them focus on sports rather than taking part in negative behaviors and activities.’ he continued. He references the likes of Wesley So and Sarah Jane Barredo who are now making waves in the international scene of chess and badminton, respectively. Both are natives of Bacoor.

Angelo Bajamudin was probably the biggest winner of the tournament. Right after his win in Badminton (Singles Secondary), he was offered by a scout of the University of Perpetual Help – Dalta System for a scholarship and play in the NCAA. “Ito po talaga ang pangarap ko, gamitin ang badminton para makapagtapos ng pag-aaral.”, confided by the 16-year old Molino High talent.

“This is also one of PSC’s mission in holding sports activities – to identify and tap raw talents that can be polished into gems to join the nation’s sports workforce in the future.”, Commissioner Agustin concluded.

Musikaramay Basketball: 3×3 Para sa Marawi: Uniting Filipino through Music and Basketball to help rebuild Marawi.

The month of October marks the 4th year anniversary. Musikaramay or “musika na nakikiramay” is a community of people in the music industry wanting to be real-life superheroes through music.
Also known as “busking for a cause”, Musikaramay goes around the metro setting up in public places to play for their chosen beneficiary. In 4 years, they have raised funds for the ff:

• Yolanda Survivors in Palo, Leyte
• Rehabilition for Zamboanga Children
• SAF 44
• Kids with cancer at the National Children’s Hospital
• Raincoats, boots and umbrella donations to indigenous kids in Subic

As of the moment, we have 20 scholars at the Blessed Ville Special School in Cavite which came from donations during their performances in the streets of Manila.

In celebration, Musikaramay will be staging the Musikaramay Basketball: 3×3 Para sa Marawi, a FIBA-endorsed Basketball League powered by Triple Threat Manila.

Nov 6, 2017, 8am to 6pm at the Cuneta Astrodome, 28 teams. 112 players. 7 hours of community basketball uniting different personalities from the music industry, will raise funds for our internally displaced brothers and sisters in Marawi through the help of Alagang Kapatid Foundation, Inc.

With the essence of “BAYANIHAN” coming to life again, Co-presented by Globe Telecom thru the support of City Mayor Tony Calixto, Vice Mayor Boyet Del Rosario, Congresswoman Emi Calixto Rubiano, Councilor Ding Santos and the members of Sangguniang Panlunsod and Office of Senator Sonny Angara.

In partnership with Royal MNL, GlutaMAX MEN, Meister Philippines, RAKISTA and Rakista Radio

We would like to invite you to come, watch and join the cause. Instead of the traditional ticket selling, you will make a difference by giving 50php donation fee, and 2 canned goods.

What is Athlete’s Social Responsibility (ASR)? How can you be a part of it?

WHAT is ASR?

ATHLETE’S SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (ASR) – the responsibility of athletes to give back to the community by sharing their passion for sports to the youth

YSA’s 13th Ten Accomplished Youth Organizations (TAYO) Awards experience paved the way for the organization’s realization of its true potential to be an instrument of social change through sports. Volunteerism has been the backbone of YSA’s success and we were inspired to promote volunteerism more.

Through our advocacy, athletes had the opportunity to volunteer and share their experience to our aspiring youth athletes. Everyone in the group actually saw the development of the athletes and the community. As much as we want to go around all over the Philippines, we can’t because YSA can’t do this alone. We need more athletes to help out and give back to their own communities. We need more athletes to realize that they should be socially responsible to commit to the idea of Athlete’s Social Responsibility. Hence, the birth of this project – Athlete’s Social Responsibility (ASR).

YSA defines ASR as the responsibility of athletes to give back to the community by sharing their passion for sports to the youth. It is not just about teaching the youth the required skills but also instilling good values to them through play and at the same time unleashing their potentials. Through ASR, we aim to make athletes become socially responsible and to start creating positive social change in different communities.

WHY ASR should exist?

1. There are many young people who are interested in sports who don’t have the opportunity to learn and this could mean a lot of potentials that are waiting to be unleashed. The more youth who do not have access to sports also means more youth are being deprived of the benefits of playing sports.

This is where we see athletes as instruments in spreading the power of sports to the youth. By encouraging athletes to take part in ASR, they are also helping the youth do away with bad habits and sedentary activities.

2. Many athletes do not see their potentials to affect social change. Through ASR, we want them to realize that there’s more to life than winning games and becoming the best athletes that they can be. We want them to realize that they can use sports to inspire the youth not just to become good athletes but also become champions in life.

3. ASR simply supports the fact that sports can unite people. By instilling the value of volunteerism to the athletes and using sports to make the youth become better individuals, we believe that ASR will contribute in nation building through sports.

HOW can you support ASR?

1. To become a socially responsible athlete you just need the following:

1. Passion for sports.
2. Willingness to share it.
3. Time to share it to the youth.

Start with the youth in your community. YSA only started with 3 kids and now we have more than 100 aspiring young athletes in one community and counting. Don’t wait for the right time to give back, make time for it. Start with what you have wherever you are.

2. Help us promote ASR by sharing our photos and videos on our Facebook page
3. Join the ASR Challenge by joining our Facebook volunteers’ group.

Pedal for HIV " Tour de PIlipinas” Poster

“HIV Positive Poster Tour de PIlipinas”

A drop of HIV-positive blood.

Would you step back and move away from it?

The HIV epidemic in the Philippines has been described as “explosive,” with the fastest rate of increase in new HIV cases globally. While other countries have managed their HIV epidemics and are now witnessing a significant decline in the number of new cases, the Philippines has recorded sharply increasing rates of new infections.

An HIV awareness campaign that aims to reduce the stigma associated with HIV through the innovative HIV-Positive Poster will be holding its Tour de Pilipinas, visiting key sites in the country starting this February. The HIV-Positive Poster, which is one of the main features of the awareness campaign, is made with a drop of HIV-positive blood.

The HIV posters were originally developed by Grupo de Incentivo a Vida (GIV), a non-government organization based in Brazil. Made with a drop of blood donated by a person living with HIV (PLHIV), the posters carry messages that explain how HIV is transmitted, and underscore that people can NOT get HIV from the poster, or from casual contact with a PLHIV. The HIV-Positive Poster campaign has won international awards such as the Bronze Lion at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival – Press Category. The poster was first released in Asia (in the Philippines) by Pedal for HIV, in partnership with GIV – Life Support Group.

Tour de Pilipinas, organized by Pedal for HIV and GIV, aims to:

Increase visibility of the HIV Positive Poster
Provide information on HIV
Empower the youth to became advocates
Reduce HIV stigma & discrimination

Faustine Luell T. Angeles Jr., founder of Pedal for HIV, will be travelling to key sites together with two representatives from the Brazil-based GIV – Life Support Group. Tour de Pilipinas will have the following schedule:

Banaue – 16 February

Palawan –23 February

Cebu – 1 March

Boracay – 6 March

Iloilo – 10 March

The specific venues in these locations will be announced later.

Tour de Pilipinas is organized in partnership with The Red Whistle, an HIV awareness campaign that uses the arts and social media in its advocacy to normalize HIV and AIDS. Sponsored by Premiere Condoms, Spyder Philippines, Catch Restaurant, Hooch Bar, 2GO Travel, HOWWWL Digital, Hotel Centro, WhenInManila.com & GoPro.
