During our transect walk, Filipinos love for basketball is very evident. From the covered courts to streets, you can definitely see basketball boards with rims, even in just a simple post on the street.
Fiestas won't be complete without the "liga" or baskeball tournaments where you can find men in all ages playing. Of course we love Manny Pacquiao's sports but basketball seems to be the top sports of the country despite the fact that our national sports is arnis(legally recognized).
Do you play any sports or what is your country's national sports?
