“Kinikilala natin ang taunang Palarong Pambansa bilang tradisyon ng Department of Education na may malalim at makabuluhang papel sa paglinang ng ating mga mag-aaral at paghahanda para sa mas malalaking kompetisyon sa buhay,” VP Sara said. “Sa ating mga atleta, dito ay hindi kayo uuwing talo - dahil ang inyong partisipasyon sa ating mga kompetisyon ay isa nang tagumpay para sa bawat isa sa inyo. Baunin sana ninyo ang mga leksyon ng pakikipagkaibigan, disiplina, pagpupursige, at katatagan para sa katuparan ng inyong mga pangarap,” she said.The president acknowledged the Palarong Pambansa as the country’s pinnacle of national sporting events and the country’s main platform where future record holders and Olympic champions are honed.
This is also the first time that dance sports will become a regular feature of the games, “a fitting tribute to Cebu, which is one of the most active cities in dance sport competition,” he said. “It will not only connect games to families and fans around the world but also provide valuable data that we can use to improve performance in future competitions,” said Marcos.
