Southeast Asian Games appearances (overview)

The Philippines is set to compete at the 31st Southeast Asian Games which is scheduled to be hosted in Hanoi, Vietnam from 12 to 23 May 2022.

Preparations[]

Philippine Sports Commission head Ramon Fernandez was appointed as the chef de mission for the Philippine delegation for the 2021 Southeast Asian Games.[1] Preparations for the biannual tournament has been hampered by the COVID-19 pandemic, which also led to the cancellation of the 2020 ASEAN Para Games which was supposed to be hosted by the country.

The Philippines plans to send 626 athletes competing in 39 sports for the 2021 Southeast Asian Games. The country intends to compete in all sports except petanque.[2]

The PSC initially planned to regain supervision over the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex and PhilSports Complex, which were used as quarantine facilities for COVID-19 patients. so it could be used by athletes set to represent the country at the 2021 SEA Games as training venues by April 15, 2021. However, due to the re-imposition of enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) measures in the Greater Manila Area, such plans were scrapped and the country's national sports associations are tasked to set up their own training bubble elsewhere, where ECQ is not in place.[3] The ongoing training of taekwondo and boxers at the Inspire Sports Academy in Calamba was also modified to individual workouts from face-to-face training for the entire duration of the ECQ.[4]

On April 7, 2021, the Philippine Olympic Committee pledged that all athletes who will participate in the games would be given COVID-19 vaccines after securing a $40,000 grant from the Olympic Council of Asia.[5] Al Panlilio was also tasked to head the vaccination program of the Philippine delegation for the 2021 SEA Games.[6]
