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

Sa pagnanais na magtagumpay sa sports, iginiit ni Go for Gold Philippines godfather Jeremy Go ang pangangailangan ng suporta mula sa pamahalaan at pribadong sektor.

"In Go for Gold, we always want to help inspire our youth. We want the youth to find their own sport and encourage them to improve their lives through sports," pahayag ni Go sa kanyang pagbisita sa ‘Usapang Sports’ ng Tabloid Organization in Philippine Sports (TOPS) kamakailan sa National Press Club sa Intramuros.

“Hindi naman lahat magaling sa basketball, sa boxing or sa chess. Madami naman sports,  both physical and mental. And we want to help encourage the youth to find their own sport,” sambit ni Go, isang aktibong cylist at triathlete.

Iginiit ni Go,na sa pamamagitan ng Go for Gold program na itinatag niya may tatlong taon na ang nakalilipas, dalangin niya na magtagumpay ang atletang Pinoy sa international, higit sa Southeast Asian Games, Asian Games at ang ultimate goal na Olympics.

"Go for Gold wants these young athletes to uplift their lives and become better individuals who can also uplift the country," ayon kay Go sa lingguhang sports forum na itinataguyod ng  Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) at National Press Club (NPC) at napapanood sa Facebook live via Glitter Livestream.

Umiwas naman si Go na magbigay ng prediksyon sa kampanya ng Team Philippines sa SEA Games sa Nobyembre.

"I don't want to make any promises,  but I believe all the sports that we support have the potential to win a gold in the SEA Games. "But as I've mentioned previously,  hindi lang naman kami basta support  ng support ng lahat ng sports. Tinitignan din namin yung need ng sports kung may suporta. And of course, yun potential. We look at it very carefully. I think all the sports that we support have proven themselves previously and have the potential moving forward to win a gold  in the SEA Games,"aniya.

"We're not going to stop. We're hoping some of the athletes we support can qualify for the Olympics."

"We believe in working together with the government. We understand that the budget for Philippine sports is not as high as in our neighboring countries. But we also understand the government has different priorities," pahayag ni Go.
