“Your (women athletes) contribution to the country is seen and felt by everybody. The community of champions you have established is what we need in advancing our agenda and platforms for all athletes,” Philippine Sports Commission chairman Richard Bachmann said.
Aside from Eala and Bolden, more than 40 Filipina athletes were recognized in the said event. One of them was Hidilyn Diaz who was one of the recipients of the Flame Award.
