Light the Torch – Beijing Olympics and Other Olympic News

Compete in World Sporting Events!

by Sasha Manuel on March 1st, 2007

A recent commenter here at Light the Torch, Jem Apelar, is looking for Filipino-American (Fil-Am) athletes.

“I’m looking for Filipino Americans who compete in the collegiate level. Any sport including skiing and snowboarding. I recruited over a dozen who are now representing the Philippines in track, swimming, beach volleyball and skiing and snowboarding in the World competitions. If you know of anyone interested please let me know.”Jem Apelar

It’s great to know that there are still people out there who believes in the Filipino (though Fil-Am, they’re still Filipinos me thinks) athleticism. I want to see more athletes representing my country who seems to have a difficult time rearing such individuals. This is simply because I believe that pinoys (Filipinos) can compete in a world-class scale.

If you are a good candidate, or you know someone who is, you send an email to Jem at Filamathletes@yahoo.com.

I hope I get to blog about these athletes soon!
