00:00Welcome to PTV Sports, we're going to be with you live via Zoom, Hazel Yam, member of the Gilas Filipinas Women.
00:13Good morning, Hazel. How are you?
00:15Good morning.
00:16Straight from down under Australia.
00:19Hello, good morning. So far, so good naman. Enjoying my stay here.
00:25Ayan. Siyempre, Hazel, ipisahan natin. Gusto namin maalaman, paano ba nagsimula muna ang karyer mo sa basketball?
00:34So, nag-start siya nung around kindergarten ako kasi yung brother ko, part siya ng high school varsity team.
00:44So, every time inaantay namin siya sa practice, nandun din kami sa practice.
00:48And then, one time, nakakita lang ako ng ball sa side, and picked it up, and then started playing with it.
00:55Tapos, eventually, I enjoyed. And then, nagpabili na ako ng sarili kong basketball.
01:00And then, eventually, ayun, napunta na sa Sala sa high school varsity team.
01:04And then, fortunately, nakuha sa Ateneo for college basketball. And ayun, nagtuloy-tuloy na.
01:12Love at first sight pala ko, please.
01:14Love at first sight. Just imagine, at three years old, very young, no?
01:16Now, before tayo pumunta sa experience mo dyan sa Australia, you've represented the Philippine flag in the international competition.
01:24Ano yung pinaka-memorable event or tournament with Team Philippines?
01:31I guess yung sa against Austria namin, we had the chance to win it sana.
01:41Game winner sana yung layup ko.
01:43Kaso, foul siya. Tapos, hindi natawag.
01:46So, we ended up losing the game.
01:48Pero, for me, parang ano siya.
01:51Wake up call na marami pang pwede i-improve.
01:56Ganyan.
01:56So, next time, when the time comes, kung yun na yung binigay ni Lord na time,
02:01makasushoot ko na yun.
02:03Parter, alam mo ba, si Hazel is one of the advocates to professionalize
02:08etong women's basketball, if I'm not mistaken, Hazel, di ba?
02:12So, do you think, at this point, eh, nandun na tayo?
02:15Uh, we're getting there kasi, um, meron na tayong WMPBL, which is gonna turn pro na this, uh, this year.
02:27So, yeah, we're getting there slowly.
02:30Pero, andyan na yung, andito na yung start.
02:34Yeah, you've been an athlete sa basketball, which is a male-dominated sport.
02:40Ngayon, uh, what do you think of the progress na unti-unti na nga itong nakikilala
02:45at soon magiging pro na nga, the first pro basketball for women's,
02:50hindi lang sa Pilipinas, but in Asia?
02:54Mm-hmm.
02:54So, malayo na yung narating natin, no?
02:57Kasi before, nung, um, nung elementary ako, sumasali ako sa basketball clinic.
03:02Siguro, one or two girls lang kami dun sa basketball clinics.
03:06Pero, ngayon, meron ng basketball clinics specially made for women or for girls.
03:11And then, ayun nga, meron pa tayong pro league.
03:13So, malaking progress na talaga.
03:16Hazel, you've been very, uh, successful or representing Team Philippines.
03:22Ano naman yung nag-motivate sa'yo to take your talents dito nga sa Australia
03:26and join the Goldfields Giants this season?
03:30Um, yung pinaka nag-motivate sa'kin is para mapakita sa world
03:34kung paano maglaro ang isang Filipina.
03:37So, yun.
03:38I want to show the world and open the eyes of the world na
03:41we Filipinas can play basketball.
03:44Okay, nabanggit mo na nga as a Pinay athlete playing this sport.
03:49How is this different compared to, you know, other countries?
03:52Kasi sa iba, di ba, sa ibang bansa, NBA, matagal na silang merong women's basketball.
03:56Ano ba ang merong, uh, Pilipinang basketballista?
03:59Um, I can show them na kahit hindi tayo ganun ka-blessed sa height,
04:06we have a big heart.
04:07So, kahit ganun, laban lang palagi.
04:10Do you think, ano, Hazel, yung experience mo sa Ateneo
04:14and, of course, dito sa Gilas,
04:16um, ano yung contribution nito?
04:18Ang nakikita mo dito sa paglalaro mo sa Australia?
04:21Um, siyempre, isang malaking factor is yung, ano, no, yung experience.
04:28So, I've been playing 5-on-5 dun sa Ateneo
04:33and five years din yun.
04:36So, lahat ng natutunan ko against other, um, high-caliber players,
04:40um, dinadala ko lang rin dito sa Australia.
04:45Also, Hazel, no, nag-laro ka din sa 3x3.
04:49Tama ba?
04:50And, uh, malaking pagkakaiba ang 5-on-5, a 3x3.
04:54Pero, how will you be able to utilize at, uh, you know,
04:58magamit yung experience mo from that 3x3 to 5-on-5?
05:03Um, unang-una is, yun nga, we're undersized.
05:07So, sa 3x3, ganun din.
05:09And, I've learned na hindi pwede na mag-rely sa athleticism.
05:15So, kailangan mag-read, mag-read, babasahin mo rin yung defense,
05:18which is, nadala ko rin sa 5-on-5.
05:22So, yung experience against playing bigger players
05:24is malaking tulong sa akin pagdating ko dito sa Australia.
05:28Parter, I'm just very curious, though, with Hazel.
05:32Paano ka nakapag-adjust na with your new team dito sa Goldfields Giants?
05:36Um, how different is it dito sa iyong team dito sa Philippines?
05:40Um, nakapag-adjust naman ako nicely kasi alam mo,
05:45sobrang friendly nila dito.
05:47So, um, nung unang practice pa lang, nakapag-adjust naman na ako.
05:51And then, the difference lang is,
05:54sa Philippines kasi, everyday yung practice namin.
05:57And then, pagkadating dito, biglang twice a week lang.
06:00So, I really have to stay disciplined na yung mga days na wala kaming practice,
06:04kailangan, nag-weights ako, nag-e-extra ako.
06:08Ooh, that's anon, interesting to hear na mas konte yung training days nila sa Australia
06:13compared sa atin dito sa Philippines, which they train every day.
06:17Totoo, totoo. At saka may balance din kasi yun ang weights, loading,
06:21iba-iba eh, no?
06:22Gentle conditioning, psych.
06:24Meron din bang psych dito sa Australia?
06:27Sorry?
06:28Psychological, ano, body training or session or...
06:32Ah, wala naman, wala naman.
06:34Well, Hazel, ikaw ay parte ng dumadaming atleta or waves of athletes going abroad to play.
06:44I mean, ano ba ang pakiramdam na, alam mo yun, nakikilala na sa ibang bansa
06:48ang talent ng Pinoy pagdating din sa sport na basketball?
06:53Siyempre, very good feeling siya, no?
06:56Kasi, um, nags-step up na ang Filipinas, hindi lang sa basketball,
07:00pati sa tennis, katulad ni Alex Ayala.
07:03So, it's a very good feeling na unti-unti yung Filipinas is being recognized na as athletes.
07:10Hmm. Hazel, matanong ko lang, ano ba yung future goals mo as a Filipina player dyan sa gold fields?
07:17Uh, future goal ko is, syempre, mag-perform well dito para makita pa ng ibang teams
07:24and mag-start sila, mag-recruit pa ng other Filipina players para makakagawa ng opportunity for us.
07:31Ano mo, ang, Ms. Meg, ang nakita ko in the last WMPB, alam, marami silang teams,
07:38pero pagdating sa skillset at syaka yung galawan ng mga basketball players,
07:43sobrang different na yung fluidity, yung pagiging smooth, diba?
07:48And then, nakakatuwa dahil, dati kasi pag nakita ka ng babae na basketball player,
07:53makikita mo na medyo pag-girl pa yung galawan.
07:55Ngayon, talagang kaya nilang makipagsabayan. Physicality na dyan din.
07:59Totoo. Pero Hazel, well, meron ka bang message sa lahat ng mga, you know,
08:05batang babae na interesado mag-basketball?
08:09At kung may gusto kang pasalamatan, pwede mo na silang i-shout out.
08:13Um, ayun, um, to all the aspiring Filipina ballers,
08:17um, never stop working hard kahit walang nakakakita, work hard lang kayo
08:21kasi eventually it's gonna translate to your game.
08:24Um, so, ayun, keep working hard kasi meron na tayong future sa basketball.
08:29And then, shout out lang sa mom ko, sa family ko, and kay Coach Chris.
08:35Ayan, Coach Chris, bautista ba to?
08:39Yes.
08:40Aba, iba, iba.
08:42Pinsan-san natin na hindi na si Coach Chris.
08:44Mayroon pa siyang wheelchair basketball.
08:45Suki na natin si Coach Chris dito.
08:47Pero Hazel, congratulations sa'yo and good luck sa iyong career dyan sa Australia.
08:52At syempre, aabangan namin ang iyong mga laro.
08:56Ayan, narami salamat.
08:58Thank you, Hazel. See you soon.
09:00Thank you. Thank you very much.
