PSC donates 2,000 sports balls to OP for grassroots development

The Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) has donated 2,000 sports balls to the Office of the President to support grassroots sports development in public schools nationwide.

The donation includes 1,000 volleyballs from the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) and the Philippine National Volleyball Federation, 500 basketballs from the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas, and 500 footballs from the Philippine Football Federation.

This initiative aligns with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s vision for a new national sports development program, as outlined in his fourth State of the Nation Address.

In partnership with the Department of Education, the PSC aims to reintroduce sports clubs, inter-school competitions, and intramurals in public schools.

The donation seeks to ensure early access to sports and nurture athletic talent across the country.

This occurred on the eve of President Marcos' 68th birthday, during which the First Family also attended the opening ceremony of the FIVB Men's World Championship 2025, where the President delivered the ceremonial serve.
