NAGLAAN ng kabuuang P45 milyon ang Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) bilang cash incentives ng 182 national coaches na bahagi ng overall championship ng Team Philippines sa 30th Southeast Asian Games (SEAG).

Batay sa Republic Act No. 10699 na kilala din bilang National Athletes and Coaches Benefits and Incentives Act, nakasaad na ang mga national coaches na nagwagi ng gintong medalya ay makakatanggap ng halagang One Hundred Fifty Thousand Pesos (P150,000.00), habang ang silver medal finish ay mayroong Seventy-Five Thousand Pesos (P75,000.00) at ang bronze medal finish naman ay may Thirty Thousand Pesos (P30,000.00).

“The incentives for the coaches shall be equivalent to fifty percent (50%) of the cash incentives for gold, silver and bronze medalists. In case of more than one (1) coach, the cash incentives shall be divided among themselves,” bahagi ng nakapaloob sa ilalim ng nasabing batas.
