LINGAYEN– The Philippine Beach Games is set to hold its fourth edition in Pangasinan on May 24-26.

The three-day multi-sport event will feature 10 events this year: beach dodgeball, beach handball, beach petanque, beach run, beach ultimate, beach volleyball, beach football and beach touch rugby.

JP Demontano, PBG founder and head, noted that Lingayen Capitol Beachfront is, by far, the ideal and perfect venue for the beach games.

“When we saw Pangasinan, specifically Lingayen, we thought that this is what we are looking for,” Montano said stressing that since 2016, the multisport event achieved feats and continues to expand in partnership with the provincial government

He expressed his gratitude to the provincial government for the support the organization has been receiving since the first staging of PBG in the province in 2016.

Demontano added that more than the entertainment, this activity aims to discover and hone local talents and introduce new sets of sports to the next generation.

“Gusto naming dumami ang local teams at mag-introduce ng new sports para sa kabataan,” he stated.  

As such, preserving the unrivaled beauty and abundance of pristine beaches, which serve venue to the annual tournament, is at the core mission of the activity.

Registration for PBG sports starts on May 24 while the main tournament begins on May 25. (PIO/SMDG)
