00:00 In soft tennis, the players will be named in the Philippine Soft Tennis Team
00:05 who will be the national team for the Hangzhou Asian Games
00:09 which will start this September.
00:12 Let's find out who they are in the story of Darrell O'Clarence.
00:16 A total of 10 athletes from the Philippine Soft Tennis Team will play
00:22 in the upcoming 19th Asian Games that will be held in Hangzhou, China.
00:26 The 32nd Southeast Asian Games Medallists will compete for the women's team.
00:32 Suleta Manialak, Bambi Suleta, Princess Katindig, Christie Sanyosa, and Vervenica Bejosano.
00:39 The men's team will be led by the Seagames Singles Gold Medallist Joseph Arcilia
00:44 who will be accompanied by Deo Talatayud, Samuel Nugget, Adyutor Moralde, and Sherwin Nugget.
00:50 The complete team will be with us. It's a first for a long time that we have a complete team for Asian Games.
00:57 It was very difficult to have a slot for Asian Games.
01:03 But now, the soft tennis team and our whole team are giving it.
01:07 My players are already excited.
01:11 We need to show them that we are bound for Asian Games.
01:19 In addition to basic training, the team is also focusing on strengthening their mental state
01:26 in order to face their games.
01:28 As of now, we are undergoing training mentally for the strategies that we cannot break.
01:36 We can only lose because we have mental lapses.
01:39 We are now physically fit because our players are taking care of the Philippine Sports Commission MSOS Group.
01:48 That's where we will lack.
01:50 The mental state of our players is the edge of the will to win.
01:56 We need to prepare well.
01:58 The Philippine Soft Tennis Team will stay in Sunchang, South Korea
02:03 to continue their training before they return to the Philippines on September 16.
