PRISAA: Nation’s Partner in Moulding Filipino Athletes

Honorable judges, respected teachers and my fellow students

“Mens sana in corpore sano, a healthy mind in a healthy body,” this means that
physical exercise is an important or essential part of mental and psychological well-being.

Sports not only develop our physical strength and keep us fit but it also does more
to our overall personality. It helps in character building, developing leadership skills and
improving goal setting capabilities. A person who engages more in sports activity regularly
will automatically have improved self-esteem, increased social interaction and more
resilient qualities which will make him to progress positively in his life.

Previously, people were so focused on their studies that they didn’t have any time
for sports and everyone thought playing sports is a wastage of time and one shouldn’t
take sports as his profession. But now, looking at the success of various sports persons,
the schools have realized the importance of sports in education, and that is why a lot of
sports-related syllabi has added to the curriculum of various school.

Ladies and gentlemen, the most important thing which majorly contributes to a
nation’s development is peace and unity and sport plays an important role in nation
building by creating a sense of oneness and togetherness among its citizens. It helps to
build a sense of cooperation and team building among its people so that they can unite
together and work for the development of the country.

Sports build a strong character and elevate the confidence level in the youths of a
country so that they can face the challenges of the competitive world and emerge
successful to contribute in the nation’s development.

As the Philippines continues to make itself known on the world stage as a


developing country, there is also a rising need to redefine the country’s cultural identity.

Ladies and gentlemen, today’s event nurtures that identity, to inspire and raise
aspirations enabling continued participation, supporting physical, educational and
personal development to create a culture of winning in the country. In that way, Filipinos
may find within themselves the determination and motivation to make a positive impact
on the nation and enable them to achieve their goals and development in life.

Sports remain a popular aspect of Philippine culture. As such, the country’s


government has had several attempts at improving its athletics program through various
Republic Acts and Senate Bills, however, implementation of such laws have been put
aside by many local governments so they can focus more on poverty alleviation.
Meanwhile, each sporting community hosts both local and international tournaments with
the purpose of building itself and or gauging itself against its peers.

My highest respect and great honour to the Filipino athletes who brought
tremendous pride to the country in excelling in their sports.

Ladies and gentlemen, this outcome serves as a testament to the great things that
we can achieve better when we work together. Let us encourage everyone to continue
supporting our Filipino athletes who embody excellence, superiority and teamwork.

I believe that sport lays the foundation of healthy individuals and develops their
capabilities and personalities in building a well-developed and resilient person.
