00:00The first day of the Philippine Women's National Baseball Team Open Tryout was a success
00:06which was held at Rizal Baseball Stadium.
00:09For more details, let's go back to my partner Bernadette Sinoy.
00:15Physical strength, speed, throwing, hitting, and attitude.
00:20These are just a few of the talents that the Philippine Amateur Baseball Association is looking for
00:26to be part of the Women's Baseball Team and represent the country
00:29at the upcoming Asian Championships in June.
00:32On Tuesday, January 7 at Rizal Baseball Stadium,
00:35Joel Palanog, head coach of the Philippine Open Tryouts, led the team
00:39to choose the winners of the tournament.
00:43He encouraged all the women who tried to attend the event.
00:48This is the first day of the Philippine Women's National Baseball Team Open Tryout.
00:53We are expecting a base tryout every Tuesday and Thursday.
00:57For those guys also, girls who are interested to show up and be part of the Women's National Team,
01:04you are very welcome to come and join us and show me how good you are.
01:09Our mindset is that we will go back to zero.
01:13Everybody has to show up to fight for the final cut for the 20 men going to the Asian Championships.
01:23Aside from the members of the national team,
01:25some Filipinos also participated in the tryouts.
01:27Just like 20-year-old Jennie Mae Tevez, who is the future position.
01:33It's very pressuring because we are all beginners.
01:36Those who participated in the tryout are all veterans.
01:41As myself, I can see that I still need to improve.
01:46I need to broaden my knowledge in baseball.
01:51The national team member, Tana Mong, can't escape the excitement of seeing her teammates play.
01:57We are excited to get some fresh blood in our team.
02:01And as a current player, I'm happy to see more people come in and try out.
02:09For now, the search for baseball players who will play in the international event continues.
