00:00Along with the opening of International Women's Month,

00:03let's get to know the women who are giving support to the athletes in the competition.

00:08What do we call them?

00:10Let's find out in Jamaica Bayaka's report.

00:21They're beautiful,

00:23they're fierce,

00:25and they look like superstars.

00:27You often see them as supporters of the athletes in the competition.

00:31They're not the muse of the league.

00:33And they're not just a simple audience.

00:37Are you curious about what they're called?

00:39They're the WAGs.

00:48Wait, wait.

00:49Those are not WAGs.

00:51A WAG is a word that means

00:53wives and girlfriends of high-profile sportsmen and women.

00:57In short,

00:58they're the supportive partners of your favorite athletes

01:01like Lenore Hood, Jinky Thompson, and many more.

01:07The WAGs are considered the cheerleaders and number one fans of the players.

01:11That's why they do a lot to strengthen the fighting spirit of the athletes.

01:16We often see WAGs in sports,

01:18especially in basketball.

01:20Aya, a BINI member, was recently spotted watching a game on PBA.

01:26But she's not a WAG.

01:27Oops, really?

01:30Some of these WAGs are the longtime partners of Gabe Norwood

01:33since 2009 when he was Lenore Wood.

01:36There's also Jerrely Eram,

01:38the wife of CNT Center's Poy Eram.

01:40Kam Lagmay's support is also not a secret.

01:42She's the fiancée of Meralcobal Superstar Chris Newsome.

01:45Danica Soto is also often seen

01:47when her husband and retired PBA player Mark Pingris are fighting.

01:52It's also common to see on social media

01:54that one of the most popular WAGs is Chloe San Jose,

01:57girlfriend of 2-time Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo.

02:00Chloe is a big part of Kaloy's fights

02:03to become the Olympic champion.

02:05But aside from being life partners,

02:07what are the responsibilities of WAGs?

02:11It's our duty to be able to support everything that they want to do.

02:15And yeah, we're just basically there to back them up.

02:19When you know you have a support system,

02:21you have a family,

02:22you know, you're playing for something bigger than yourself.

02:25It's not just, obviously you're playing for your team,

02:28but at the same time you're playing for,

02:30you know, your sons watching,

02:32your wife, you know, supporting you.

02:34So I think it definitely means a lot more.

02:37On and off court,

02:39you should give 100% support to your partner or husband

02:46because we're the ones who become the motivation.

02:49We also need to be game-faced

02:51and then our support should be,

02:54he will feel our support during the games.

02:58Every game, every practice, I'm really with him.

03:01Because in those things, my partner is the one who motivates me.

03:04He's more motivated and inspired.

03:09During the matches of the 8th Division World Champion, Manny Pacquiao,

03:13his wife, Jinky, always guides him.

03:16This is also one of the reasons for the national team to win.

03:20Speaking of Jinky,

03:21this is also one of the famous Jinky nowadays

03:23when it comes to Wagsay,

03:24the wife of Gord Scully Thompson,

03:27that is Jinky Thompson.

03:28Mrs. Thompson's all-out support

03:31in her partner's basketball career.

03:34As much as possible,

03:35I'll try to make things easier for him

03:37so that he can focus on the games,

03:40on practice,

03:41he can focus on his career.

03:43We're just here as a family of kids to support him

03:46every step of the way.

03:49Behind the success of the champions,

03:50there are Wags who give motivation

03:53for the athletes to become their biggest challenge.

03:56If they're not there,

03:57can you still show your determination to the players?

04:00This game takes a lot out of you physically, mentally,

04:03especially when you get into the playoffs,

04:04just the emotional drain of the day-to-day.

04:07But to be able to come home and have my wife, my kids,

04:10and the house in order,

04:12but also to be able to share those moments,

04:14you know what I mean?

04:15Share the good times and also the frustrations

04:17with somebody who's not going to judge,

04:18who's going to love you no matter what.

04:20And yeah, it's a special opportunity to have.

04:23It's a big help for me that he's there to block all the noise.

04:27It always reminds me that

04:29just play your game and stick to what's working.

04:31And then, my mind is at peace

04:34knowing that they're watching

04:36because I have a responsibility too, right?

04:39I'm not the only one playing.

04:41I'm not the only one playing.

04:43When you say I'm the only one, I'm not the only one.

04:45My family, my kids,

04:47whatever I do, it reflects back to them.

04:51In practice, in games, he's there.

04:53It's like we're sharing the moment.

04:57That's what's important to us right now.

04:59So, we're very happy and we're grateful

05:01that we have a good job.

05:10inspirations from women
