The Filipinas’ historic World Cup win is an important feat for young female athletes questioning their place on a stage that seems to only welcome boys. READ:
It will always be crucial for young girls to have access to female role models who can show them that they are more than capable of achieving their biggest dreams. Witnessing a female athlete confidently make her mark on the field was the big push many young Filipinas needed to affirm their ability to do what they once thought impossible.
In fact, the Filipinas’ ethnicity became a controversial topic when the squad’s lineup was first announced as 18 out of the 23 members were born in America. The Philippine Football Federation’s volunteer liaison and recruitment officer Mark Mangune continued the search to complete the country’s women’s football lineup.
It’s nothing like that. In actuality, it is a moving display of the Filipino diaspora reconnecting with their heritage through their passion for the beautiful game.
