ITT : we kindly pick a new sport for the Phillipines.

Basketball is currently their favourite sport. But the average height for men in the Philippines is 5'4".

So please post which sport they should focus on.

I say boxing. They can be a new Mexico and produce many meme weight fighters (they already had 1 great).

Btw this isn't a thread for you to be rude to the Phillipines. Keep that shit on int.

Maybe baseball. You have Japan nearby, you can learn from them.

That's actually a good point.

I was thinking maybe soccer also? They are small and fast.
>>
Do you even understand what "average" entails? You only need twelve tall guys (which you can of course nitpick) at any given time to arm a proper basketball team.
>>
>>76262269
That's not how it works, dude.

You need more taller people so they can grow up playing against each other Nd have competition so they can get better.

>>
>>76262628
Ya you're right actually. Can't have short dudes defending and keeping the net.


So I'm saying they forget basketball and just make boxing gyms all over the country. Put pacs face over all of them and get kids off the streets and boxing.

Out of all the countries in Southeast Asia, the Philippines are actually top of the FIFA rankings. Them and Thailand usually switch back and forth for #1 in the region. It's surprising, you'd think Indonesia and Malaysia would be much higher up.

Just lower the net to 8 feet in the Philippines

Also unlike soccer you don't need a huge space to play it. It's easy to play in the streets. The kids playing basketball in the streets of my subdivision in the Philippines are really no different than the ones playing it in the street in the trailer park I live in now. I'm sure if they had the resources necessary to play something else they probably would.

Women's Volleyball is actually pretty popular here. probably the second most popular sport after basketball(football faded into irrelevancy). unfortunately, the players are far too short for international competition. on average the tallest player is only 5'11".

boxing as a sport isn't really that popular. it's just Manny that was memed. life doesn't stop when Donaire, Nietes or Prince Albert take to the ring.

anyway, since our women are marrying and starting families with Whites or Blacks, height will eventually stop being obstacle for us in both basketball and volleyball. and combined with our /puso/, we will one day dominate the sport.

The Philippines should try soccer. It works at any size. Japan and Korea are pretty good at it and even South Americans aren't as big as Yurop. It seems like soccer has the lowest barrier of entry seeing how diverse it is.

San Francisco and Cali in general has the highest flip population, Curry's wife is half flip making his daughter quarter flip. Inflate that with the usual bandwagon crowd any ethnicity has plus the Philippines having the highest internet usage in south east asia.

My fiancee actually did watch it this year, which really surprises me because she's a huge fan of Showtime. Usually when NBA games are on we're chatting about them.

I lived there for four years and those TV shows started to drive me crazy. I finally broke down and got good Internet so I could stream hockey and the US version of Cartoon Network. After enjoying some proper American television while eating lots of oreos and drinking tons of mountain dew every morning I was a much happier person.
