THE Philippine Masters Games Association is leaving no stone unturned in forming a highly competitive delegation to the World Masters Games in Taipei from May 17 to 30.
Atty. Al Agra, PMGA president and also the head of the Pilipinas Obstacle Sports Federation, said 42 Filipino athletes no younger than 35 years old have enlisted to compete in 10 sports.
“We have athletes who will compete in more than one sport,” Agra said in yesterday’s Philippine Sportswriters Association Forum at the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex Conference Hall.
The Philippines will vie in basketball, athletics, taekwondo, fencing, archery, triathlon, table tennis, swimming, weightlifting and fun run.
Agra said since the PMGA is a non-profit organization with no funding from the government, the Philippine representatives to the World Masters have agreed to pay for their own.
