PHILIPPINE DRAGON BOAT TEAM WINS 1000M GOLD

philwebsupport.com

The Filipinos won the initial heat beating back the challenge of powerhouse paddlers from Australia and Italy among others and then paddled their way to gold in the next round of competition beating Hungary who had earlier won the 2000M gold medal.. 

International Dragon Boat Federation officials who paid f or the Filipino paddlers housing while Philippine Airlines and Cobra met all the other expenses told Castillejo that they couldn’t afford not to have the Philippines in the competition because it would be like not having Brazil in the World Cup of football. 

Dyan said Filipinos and Fil-Americans came out to cheer our team and brought a variety of Filipino food for our athletes in another wonderful display of togetherness. 

Cobra Energy Drink agency representatives informed us that the event was a last minute addition to the race program but the Cobra-PDBF team was ready to join and won the gold even if this is not really one of their stronger events. 

Our 2007 and 2009 world championship titles are in the sprints, 200 m events for men's and mixed but they are really going all out for the Gold! 

The private sector as well as the television and print media rallied around the Philippine Dragon Boat Federation Team after they were abandoned by both the Philippine Olympic Committee headed by Jose "Peping" Cojuangco and the Philippine Sports Commission led by chairman Richie Garcia.

Dragon Boat Team needs help

philwebsupport.com

ANILA, Philippines – Despite being one of the top dragon boat teams in the world, the Philippine Dragon Boat Team has not received recognition nor assistance from the government or Filipino fans.

The Philippine Dragon Boat Team won the 200-m event in the 2007 World Championships in Sydney, Australia. They defended their championship in the 2009 World Championships in Prague, Czech Republic.

They are set to once again defend their title in the 2011 World Championships in Tampa Bay, Florida on August.

But the team lacks the funds to make the trip. They cannot pay for the air fare and have no allowance.

“Nalulungkot kami dahil... hindi po nakikilala ang sport namin,” says team captain Usman Anterola. “Kami po ang may hawak ng world record.

“Suportahan po sana kami ng mga agency sa finance at sa uniforms.”

Anterola said that all members of the team were from the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) and that they received support from the AFP.

The Philippine Dragon Boat Team needs 20 members in order to compete in the world championship – 14 men and 6 women. They are hoping that sports agencies will be able to help them in their mission to defend their title.

The team said that they are willing to make sacrifices so that they can compete in the World Championships again.

“Ang pinaka-importante po ay... ‘yung pamasahe. Walang problema sa amin, kahit sardinas lang ang kainin. Sanay naman kami sa ganyan,” said steersman Ruperto Sabijon.

“Ang training po namin ay continuous, at kami po ay handang mag-laro at mag-sacrifice ng time para manalo,” Anterola added.

But the team is clearly in need of financial support from other sports organizations.

Sabijon said that the team has been using the same wooden paddles since 2007.

Ramie Llano, another member of the dragon boat team, recounts how they had to scrimp on expenses while participating in the Sydney World Championships.

“Doon kami nakatira sa may sementeryo, naglalakad na lang kami... Walang budget eh,” said Llano.

But despite the lack of support and funding from the government and sports organizations, the Philippine Dragon Boat Team is admired in other countries.

“Kaya nating pangahain ‘yung ibang bansa. Naipapakita natin na kahit ganito tayong mga Pinoy, kaya nating mangibabaw sa sport ng Dragon Boat,” Llano said.

Llano revealed that the team’s uniforms became a hot item when they competed overseas.

“Gusto nilang makipagpalit ng uniform sa amin,” he said. He added that it was because of the team’s good performance that members of other teams wanted to exchange uniforms with them.

“Pag suot nila, para na rin silang isa sa mga nanalo.”

Sabijon is now asking President Benigno Aquino III to support the Dragon Boat Team.

“Sana suportahan natin, hindi lang sa isang sport. Itong dragon boat, nakilala na ito sa buong mundo. Sana suportahan na maganda. Ipapakita namin, kung ano ang ibibigay na suporta, bibigyan namin ng kapalit.” -
