These brothers were so cute in their customized I am the Future shirt from Nike.
The event got even more exciting with the sports activities, where children showed their skills in basketball and football.
Nike Philippines Marketing and Product Specialist Andro Torres said, “Exposing kids at a very young age to sports is critical for a child’s development. Not only do they develop their motor and physical skills, but they also get the values that come with sports. With that said, Nike Prodigy Young Athletes will be a big help to parents and children in the Philippines since we all know the importance of getting the right athletic products is very vital in optimizing sports performance; especially in the developmental stages for kids.”
Special guest coaches were there to help guide the kids and hone their skills. UAAP Analyst and Ateneo Blue Eaglets Coach Marco Benitez lead the basketball skills challenge, for football, Simon McMenemy, Manager of the UFL team Loyola Meralco Sparks and for the running and fitness, triathlete and running enthusiast Hector Yuzon and Nike Training Club Trainer Katz Salao.
Also during the program, PBA Anchor Aaron Atayde and Patricia Hizon gave away Nike gift certificates to lucky participants and also the children who completed the sports challenges were given certificates of appreciation.
Dwayne Bisquera, 8 years old enjoyed the activity with his brother and parents.
I know it’s ber month already mommies, so fret not, because now we don’t have to ask our relatives abroad to buy Nike products for our children. Moreover, we don’t have to wait for months until the balikbayan box arrived on our doorstep.
