The Samahang Weightlifting ng Pilipinas is looking to tap the service anew of a Chinese coach to handle the reigns of the national team leading to the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Weightlifting federation president Monico Puentevella disclosed the plan to hire another Chinese coach to take over the place left by Gao Kaiwen in the hope of sustaining the huge gains earned in Tokyo last year when the country won its first ever Olympic gold courtesy of Hidilyn Diaz.
“Nag-OK na ang PSC Board under chairman Ramirez na kumuha ako ng bagong Chinese coach for the others,” said the former Bacolod congressman and mayor in the online Philippine Sportswriters Association on Tuesday. The weightlifting chief added he will also try to work it out with his Chinese counterpart on the matter, noting of the eight Chinese entries in the Tokyo Olympics, only one failed to bring home the gold in Liao Qiuyun, who was beaten by Diaz in the women’s 55 kg division.
“I can meet with the Chinese ambassador and I’m sure he can help us, kasi kailangan marunong mag-English kagaya ni coach Gao,” said Puentevella, who was in Baguio for the Diaz-Naranjo nuptial where he stood as one of the wedding godfathers.
