00:00The two top squash players of the country, Jamaica Arribado and Raymarc Begornia,

00:05were chosen to represent the Philippines in the prestigious 2028 Los Angeles Olympics,

00:10but on one condition.

00:12And what is it? Let's find out in my report.

00:18The two top squash players of the country, Jamaica Arribado and Raymarc Begornia,

00:25were chosen to represent the Philippines in the prestigious 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.

00:33This is the first time a squash sport has been played in the Olympics.

00:37That's why the Filipino squash players are eager to raise their PSA World Rankings,

00:43which is one of the requirements to get an Olympic slot pocket.

00:48During the Philippine Satellite Squash Tour,

00:51the two squash players reached the finals match,

00:54where Arribado was crowned champion in women's singles,

00:58while Begornia was crowned silver in the men's individual category.

01:02It's a good thing that we have a tournament where you can get a ranking point,

01:08so you can get a chance to go to the Olympics.

01:13Of course, if the country can afford it, why not?

01:17All the tournaments and training that we do, we really put a lot of effort into it.

01:25So, in the 2028 Olympics, I hope we can do it.

01:32With the help of their foreign head coach and former World No. 5 Malaysian squash player, Wevern Low,

01:38the Filipino squash players will go far.

01:41That's why in the PTV Sports interview,

01:43he shared his programs and plans for the Philippine squash team until the 2028 Olympic Games.

01:51The big goal for every athlete's dream is to qualify for LA 2018,

01:54especially for squash players.

01:56It's the first time that squash has ever been in the Olympics.

01:59So, it's every athlete's dream to be a part of something like that.

02:03And of course, leading up to that, there will be many years of preparation.

02:07It takes a lot longer than four years to qualify for the Olympics,

02:10but we have to start somewhere.

02:12So, I mean, I've been here just over a year now.

02:14So, we have established a good training ground,

02:17the understanding within the players, the training plan.

02:20So, we have sort of things in place at this point in time.

02:23Last year was a bit more of getting them used to training schedules, tournament schedules, and things like that.

02:29So, this year, we should look at more specific planning and picking the tournaments

02:35so that they can peak at the correct time.

02:38Aside from Arribado and Bigornia,

02:40one of the National Squash Team coaches that can compete for the upcoming Los Angeles Olympics

02:46are the top junior squash players of the Philippines, Jonathan Reyes and Christopher Buraga.
