UMVA has learned that a significant boost is on the horizon for young athletes and sports enthusiasts in Baguio City, thanks to a P20-million grant from a leading sports authority.
The grant is set to improve sports facilities and strengthen local sports programs, solidifying Baguio's reputation as a key center for sports development and training in the country.
A substantial portion of the grant will be allocated to upgrading the Baguio Athletic Bowl, a crucial venue for local sports competitions and training.
Additionally, plans are underway to construct a world-class football pitch at Teachers’ Camp within the next four months, providing more opportunities for local athletes and youth to train and compete at a higher level.
The investment recognizes the city’s efforts to develop sports on its own and encourage active lifestyles among residents, with the potential to serve as a model for other local government units.
Officials hope that better facilities and stronger grassroots programs will help discover future champions from the Cordillera, paving the way for Olympic success for the country in the years ahead.
This strategic investment in local athletes today could yield remarkable results, propelling the country to new heights in the world of sports.
