Proud moment for Philippine wrestling. 🇵🇭🤼‍♀️

SEA Games Silver Medalist Aliah Rose Gavalez was recognized at Women in Sports 2026, highlighting her journey of growth, resilience, and commitment to excellence.

“As an athlete, I used to think that staying in my comfort zone was the safest choice… but I realized it was stopping me from growing.
If you’re scared to jump, that’s exactly when you should.”

Aliah stepped onto the mat at her first SEA Games in 2025 and brought home a silver medal for the Philippines.

Her story reminds us that true progress begins when we step beyond our comfort, trust our preparation, and move forward in spite of self-doubt.

From NCR Palaro to RAAM
WAP Continues to Support Regional Wrestling 🤼

Following the successful 2026 NCR Palaro Wrestling Meet, the Wrestling Association of the Philippines also supported another important regional event, CALABARZON’s 2026 Regional Athletic Association Meet (RAAM).

Similar to our support in NCR, WAP helped ensure the smooth conduct of the competition by providing technical officials, IT support for competition management, and secretariat assistance.

We would also like to recognize Ernest Perez, whose efforts made the IT support possible.
Ernest completed the Technology Course under the UWW SEA Regional Training Program 2025, equipping him with the skills to operate competition systems, timing, results, and event management tools. His contribution plays a key role in helping competitions run efficiently.

Initiatives like these show how capacity-building and education can directly strengthen the quality of competitions across the country.

WAP remains committed to supporting regional competitions and grassroots development, helping ensure that more wrestlers have opportunities to compete, grow, and gain valuable experience.

Congratulations to the organizers and participants of RAAM, and thank you to everyone working to grow wrestling nationwide.
