This happened following meetings with stakeholders and visits to various national teams, sports associations, and training facilities by the PSC board, which Chairman Richard Bachmann chairs.
Last week, Bachmann and Commissioners Edward Hayco, Bong Coo, and Walter Torres traveled to Cebu to examine various local sports at the Cebu City Sports Center, Labangon Elementary School, and with the Cebu City Local Education Board.
The PSC executives also participated in the start of the most considerable rhythmic gymnastics hula-hoop workout attempt for the Guinness Book of World Records, and they were invited to the opening ceremony of the PSC Regional Training Center for Weightlifting, which Tokyo Olympian Elreen Ando attended.
The Batang Pinoy (Philippine Youth Games), one of the PSC's longtime main grassroots initiatives, is really where Ando first came from.
To ensure that the national sports agency has point people to oversee the grassroots program in their various areas, the PSC is also planning to open satellite offices across the nation.
