Senator Christopher “Bong” Go and the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) promote grassroots sports by supplying aspiring athletes with support and resources.

As head of the Senate Committee on Sports, Go has backed initiatives to provide underserved communities with sports facilities and equipment to strengthen local programs.

This year, local officials from Romblon, Surigao del Norte, and Oriental Mindoro turned to Go for help with sustaining their sports programs.

In Sta. Maria, Romblon, Mayor Lorie Fabon expressed gratitude for the equipment, which will be used in upcoming tournaments, and noted Go’s support for their basketball program. In San Benito, Surigao del Norte, Mayor Ma. Gina Sumando-Menil described the equipment’s impact on youth engagement and sports participation, while Mayor Nemmen Perez of Socorro, Oriental Mindoro, noted the positive effect on local events.

In Roxas City, Capiz, Atty. Randy Billanes sought Go’s assistance for the Capiz Eaglerays Swimming Club, Inc. to obtain equipment for young swimmers. Go worked with the PSC to provide resources, ensuring support even for specialized sports like swimming.

"As I always remind our youth, get into sports, stay away from illegal drugs to keep us healthy and fit," Go said.
