00:00As part of Disability Awareness Month,

00:04Soft Tennis Pilipinas launched a sports clinic

00:08for persons with disabilities.

00:14Persons with disabilities were given the opportunity

00:17to play soft tennis at the DSWD National Vocational Rehabilitation Center.

00:21Because of this, the Soft Tennis Clinic was launched this Monday morning

00:25for our PWDs.

00:27It was possible because of the support of Soft Tennis Pilipinas,

00:30Juan Meralco Foundation, and the local government of Quezon City

00:34led by Vice Mayor Guian Soto.

00:36We really wanted to support because it's part of the program

00:39of the inclusivity of our program, our sports development office.

00:42The distribution of different sports programs

00:46to all our brothers and sisters in QC, including our PWDs.

00:51Business Center Head Agnes Makog also assured

00:54that they will continue to support these programs,

00:57not only in Soft Tennis, but also in other sports.

01:00So I think in the next few years, you will see us more involved,

01:05not just in Soft Tennis, but probably with other sports that we may tap.

01:09According to Sea Games Multimedalist, Bianzuleta Maniala,

01:12she emphasized that it's important to make sports inclusive,

01:15especially for PWDs.

01:17Sports is for everyone.

01:21It's not just for the abled, but also for our PWDs.

01:27Through Soft Tennis, we were able to give them joy and awareness

01:33that even they can play sports.

01:40to all the participants of the successful Soft Tennis Clinic.
