In an approved resolution sponsored by councilor Rodolfo Cabigas, council committee chairman on games and amusements and professional sports, the city is asking financial assistance from Garcia and Gullas worth P300,000; and P150,000 from provincial board members Raul Bacaltos, Juan Bolo and Alfie Ouano.
"The city recognizes the importance of physical fitness and amateur sports program for all persons in the community regardless of age and gender," Cabigas said.
He added that it is the desire of the city to prepare, train and develop those who are inclined to sports that they will have the opportunity to represent the city either in national or international competitions.
"The city government in its effort to encourage and maintain the sports development program has realized that the hindrance to sustaining such is in the usual bureaucratic shortage of funds, and has to extend outward for assistance from benevolent sources," Cabigas said.
