  • History of Philippine Sports
    Philippine Sports History Articles Collection Compiled by Andrew Pirie ATFS Statistician Articles by Various Writers Baguio Teacher's Camp & History of Sports Baguio BAGUIO TEACHERS CAMP As I intend to head to the teachers camp this weekend I have done some background research into the camp as I was curious as how old it really is and as a fledgling historian I wanted to know a bit about its background. Here is what I found. The link to the full article is below I have just picked out the important parts. Teachers’ Camp opened its doors for its first season on April 6, and closed on May 30, 1908. A total of 217 adults and 24 children attended the camp. Lecturers were invited from universities and government offices from both the Philippines and the United States. There were regular lectures on General Anthropology and General Ethnology, Genetic Psychology and Present Day Educational Tendencies, Government of the United States and Contemporaneous Problems in Government, Heredity and Spanish. *From reading this they had a variety of higher level courses offered at the beginning of the 20th Century in a transitional period for the Filipino people. Teacher's Camp Fortunately, it was not all academic in Teachers’ Camp. Teachers’ Camp was also a vacation resort for teachers. The Camp successfully addressed a problem most American educators had while working in the Philippines: American educators did not have an easy time working here in the country. In most cases, these foreigners were assigned to schools where there weren't any other Americans for miles.

  • Ralph Andrew Ramos Critical Factors Influencing International Sporting Success of the Philippines: the Athletes’ Perspective
    Ralph Andrew Ramos Critical factors influencing international sporting success of the Philippines: the athletes’ perspective University of Jyväskylä Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences Master’s Thesis Social Sciences of Sport Autumn 2015 UNIVERSITY OF JYVÄSKYLÄ Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences Master’s Degree Programme in Sport Management and Health Promotion RAMOS, RALPH ANDREW Critical factors influencing international sporting success of the Philippines: the athletes’ perspective Master’s thesis, 63 pages, 20 appendices pages Social Sciences of Sport Autumn 2015 ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to contribute to the understanding of the recent declining performance of the Philippines in international sporting competitions by identifying and evaluating relevant factors that are critical to its international success through the perspective of the national elite athletes. An evaluation of the organizational effectiveness of the national sports governing bodies provides explanation to the poor performance of the country in major international competitions such as the Southeast Asian (SEA) Games. One of the most recent approaches used in measuring organizational effectiveness is the Sport Policy factors Leading to International Sporting Success (SPLISS) model. The model specifies Critical Success Factors (CSFs) which are operationalized into measurable concepts for evaluation of success in international sporting competitions. The purpose of this paper is to identify and evaluate relevant CSFs that influence the international sporting performance of the Philippines. This research also aims to compare the results of the evaluated CSFs between the participating National Sport Associations (NSAs). Finally, the study examines possible relationships with international success output (2015 SEA Games results) among the participating sports.

    ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ wo women, both mothers, sat silently, intently watching the TTwebcast recording of an event that happened halfway across the world in The Hague, The Netherlands: the reading of the verdict of the in- dependent Permanent People’s Tri- bunal (PPT) Second Session on the Philippines last 25 March 2007. The women’s faces were stern as the PPT declared the guilt of another woman, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, her government, as well as the regime of US President George W. Bush, on charges of violations of human rights, economic plunder and transgression of the Filipino people’s sov- ereignty. After the verdict was read, Evangeline Hernandez and Erlinda Cadapan, both con- veners of Hustisya! (Victims of the Arroyo Regime United for Justice), smiled and called it a step forward in their quest for justice for their daughters, both victims of the Arroyo regime’s atrocities. “Our loved ones who were killed by this government were defamed as terrorists. Today, the real terrorists have been re- vealed,” said Evangeline, whose 22-year- old daughter Benjaline or Beng was killed by members of the Civilian Auxiliary Forces Geographical Unit (CAFGU) in Arakan Val- ley, North Cotabato on 5 April 2002. Beng was then the deputy secretary general of Karapatan for Mindanao, and the vice president for Mindanao of the College Edi- tors Guild of the Philippines (CEGP). For her part, Erlinda expressed mixed emotions. “I am happy with the verdict, but then I’m angry again because my daugh- ter is still missing and this government only propagates lies and protects the perpetra- tors.” BY DEE AYROSO ..

This spelled the big difference for Team Philippines to emerge as the overall champion of the recently-concluded 30th Southeast (SEA) Games, duplicating the feat of the 23rd Philippines SEA Games in 2005. President Rodrigo R. Duterte has placed high regard or our athletes -- giving them importance and underscoring their crucial role in nation building. I could not be prouder of our athletes who have sacrificed so much in training -- enduring the long months of being away from their families and loved ones, going on strict diets, and competing abroad to gain more experience. Their sweat and tears have paid off, giving a nation, who is hungry for hope and inspiration, a reason to feel proud. The resilience of our athletes, despite the many challenges they have to face every single day, is the epitome of the indomitable Filipino spirit. Thank you, our dear athletes, for giving pride and OF PRAISE AND INSPIRATION honor to the country.
