Willie Caballes, Manila Bulletin asst sports editor and Weekly Sports Digest sports editor, arrived in Sydney last Wednesday, Aug 30. He's here on a short visit to compare notes with ABAP president Manny Lopez on the pre-Olympic training of the Philippine boxing team. He will be meeting with other Philippine olympians before he enplanes back to Manila on Sept 10. The other events with Philippine delegation are rowing, equestrian, swimming, archery, taekwondo, and athletics. Now that the boxing team is back, the whole Phil.
Olympic contingent is complete.
Which then allows the Phil. Consul-General Libran Cabactulan to present the members of the contingent to the public. NSW State MP Paul Gibson will be there to welcome them to the Olympic City. The event is being organised by the Cabanella Boxing Brotherhood and the Multi-Purpose Centre. Jimmy Pimentel has just phoned in to report that our Filipino boxers are back in Sydney from their Cuban expedition.
