PSA to honor Filipinas with special award

MANILA, Philippines — The Philippine women’s football team turned a long-cherished dream into reality in 2023.

The Filipinas secured a place in history when they made their debut in the FIFA Women’s World Cup, becoming the country’s first ever football team to make it to the grandest stage of the “beautiful game.”

Even more, the team made the stint a memorable one following an epic 1-0 upset of co-host New Zealand during the group stage.

While the Filipinas fell short of advancing to the knockout stage, the sheer pride and joy their glorious campaign brought to the country will forever be remembered for many generations to come.

In recognition of their remarkable effort, the Filipinas will be honored with the
“Golden Lady Booters” Special Award during the San Miguel Corporation-PSA Annual Awards Night at the grand ballroom of the Diamond Hotel on Jan. 29.

The annual tradition of honoring the cream of the crop of local sports is presented by ArenaPlus, your 24/7 sports app in the country, while major sponsors are Philippine Sports Commission, Philippine Olympic Committee, PLDT/Smart and Milo.
