MAY kakayahan ang Pinoy sa football, kung kaya’t napapanahon itong linangin.

Ito ang adhikain ni dating Azkals member Anton del Rosario nang iorganisa ang 7s Football League (PVLF). Nagsisilbi ring founder at commissioner ng Megaworld 7s Youth League.

'Pikon daw?' UAAP fan na nag-dirty finger, agaw-eksena sa San Juan Arena!

Ginaganap ang PVLF tuwing weekend sa McKinley Hill Stadium sa Taguig City.

Sa kanyang pagbisita sa ‘Usapang Sports’ na inorganisa ng Tabloid Organization in Philippine Sports (TOPS) sa  National Press Club, sinabi  ni Del Rosario na nakatuon ang kanilang pansin sa kabataan.

 “I had taken eight or nine months off football and I started to miss the game so I put up something. We started off with eight teams and in the second season, we expanded to 10 teams. We happened to have gotten our finals live on TV5. This is our third season running. I was able to partner for Philam Life which is the title sponsor. Now, we have 12 men’s teams and 32 youth teams,” pahayag ni del Rosario.

Nagsimula na ang aksiyon sa liga nitong Marsos 3 at impresibo ang suporta ng sambayanan.

 “I try to make it very fun and more festive. Having grown up in the United States, one of the favorite things I wanted to do when I was younger is to go to professional games with my dad. It was not more about the team but more of the atmosphere. That's what I am trying to bring more into football to my tournament. I want something where fans and family will come in week in and week out for the festivities but also watch the people play. We do have people like several celebrities and ex-Azkals players in the game,” sambit ni d Del Rosario.

“Why we do seven aside is I find it more appealing to the Filipino people because I believe the Filipino action want a lot of action when it comes to sports. With my league, we do seven a side which means the fields are much shorter, 50 minutes, and we have five to six goals a game average so as you can tell from the details there, you see more end to end action, you have a lot more shots on goal, saves, and a lot more contact and physicality because of the size of the field,” aniya.
