00:00A lot of Filipinos celebrated the victory of the Philippine Men's Curling Team in Harbin, China.

00:06But how did this sport start?

00:09Let's find out in the report of John Arante.

00:14The Philippines is a tropical country.

00:17So who would have thought that Filipinos would win in a winter sport like curling?

00:23That's why some Filipinos were super proud and surprised when the Philippine Men's Curling Team reached the 9th Asian Games.

00:31Very good because it's a big challenge for Filipinos, especially in the Winter Olympics or Winter Games.

00:39Because we don't have that kind of weather.

00:44So it's a very big challenge, so congratulations.

00:47Very proud because Filipinos are showing that they are good in different sports.

00:56Especially in a game that we are not used to because we have not experienced such an environment.

01:04I was amazed because there is no flow in the Philippines.

01:08Curling is considered the oldest sports in the world.

01:12It started in the 16th century.

01:15Curling became popular in the 18th century and was often played in Scotland.

01:20In 1924, curling became an Olympic sport and became part of the Olympic Winter Games.

01:27In the Philippines, natural sports were introduced in 2000.

01:32The Philippine Curling Association was established in 2006 to expand the knowledge of Filipinos in natural winter sports.

01:41Now, curling has become a way for the Philippines to get their first gold medal in the Asian Winter Games.

01:49A country has proven that the climate is only warm and cold that they can keep up with other powerhouse teams,

01:57such as China and South Korea.

02:00So the question is, what's next for the Philippine curling scene?

02:05The awareness about curling is increasing.

02:08We will be organizing a learn to curl camp for Filipinos who are based in the Philippines and in Asia.

02:14Curling Pilipinas will fund the ice time, will fund the coaches and the translators.
