This initiative is among the many ways we can help the youth engage in physical activities like the sport football. It is also another step forward in saving our youth, especially those in high school levels, who are most vulnerable to meeting unscrupulous members of the society involved in using and selling illegal drugs,” said Atty. Baltazar-Cortez.
The activity was participated in by 100 high school students from Mataas na Paaralang Neptali A. Gonzales High School in Brgy. Mauway, Mandaluyong City.
