The Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) has initiated several cutback measures to preserve government support for the national athletes and at the same time help the country in fighting the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Chair William “Butch” Ramirez said they are calling off all PSC-funded sports activities for the rest of the year to redirect most of the agency’s resources for the health crisis.
