Laro ng Lahi
Now, "Laro ng Lahi" is popular with the help of NCCA and being used by the
other Philippine Local Government Unit, other organizations and other institution.
Imparting of these Filipino games to the youth is one of the main objectives of the

It is also commonly known that games play an important part in the learning
process of the child. This educational influence of games on the physical, mental, and

generation experience the fun of being truly Filipinos.
The Filipino Games are timeless. It is still well-loved and cherished by many,

but adult and elderly generation as well. It’s a timeless cultural treasure.
The games are still being played in urban & rural communities, by a majority
population who have no access to high technology. The games are still taught in public
schools.
While Filipino street games have been organized seasonally in the past by
government organization’s and private commercial enterprises, the Games has never
been sustained and revived to its once popular stature. Currently, no government or
private entity has established a legitimate organization for Larong Pinoy. Furthermore,
our country does not have School for Larong Pinoy, unlike sports training clinics that
have propagated for western sports.
A few decades ago, kids used to gather in the streets or in their neighborhood
playground to play their favorite Larong Pinoy games like piko, patintero, taguan,
tumbang preso, siato, luksong tinik, etc. These has been their regular and popular
pastimes, as well as the favorite games of their parents and grandparents until new
and modern forms of entertainment has taken over the interests of young kids.
The Filipino Games are timeless. It is still well-loved and cherished by many,

Tradition
Tradition is a story or a custom that is memorized and passed down from generation
to generation, originally without the need for a writing system. Tools to aid this process
include poetic devices such as rhyme and alliteration. The stories thus preserved are
also referred to as tradition, or as part of an oral tradition. For example, it is now a
tradition to have a Christmas tree to celebrate Christmas. Although traditions are often
presumed to be ancient, unalterable, and deeply important, they are often much less
"natural" than is often presumed. Many traditions have been deliberately invented for
one reason or another, often to highlight or enhance the importance of a certain
institution. Traditions are also frequently changed to suit the needs of the day, and the
changes quickly become accepted as a part of the ancient tradition.
Traditional sports and games (TSG) can form the backbone of a community, and they
have to be promoted to further community spirit, bring people together and generate
a sense of pride in a society’s cultural roots. Most of the traditional games and sports,
expressions of indigenous cultures and ways of life contributing to the common identity
of humanity, have already disappeared and those that have survived thus far are
threatened with imminent extinction under the combined effect of globalization and the
harmonization of the rich diversity of our world sports heritage. Traditional Sports and
Games have become an added value in terms of cultural comprehension and mutual
tolerance both within the community of nations and between them, thus contributing
to the edification of a culture of Peace. The importance of traditional sports and games
(TSGs) in promoting cultural diversity and protecting cultural identities at local, national
and international levels has already been strongly defended. (“Round table meeting
on traditional sports and games Almaty, 6 November, 2006”)14

activity where individuals or team compete for entertainment purposes.
Games and sports are not only important for success in studio but it is important
for success in every walks of our life. Games and sports include all outdoor and indoor
games and also athletics. In ancient Greece they formed the principal part of
education. Even today, they are a regular feature of the school and college curriculum.
Games and sports may be of various kinds. Apart from school or college sports,
boys and girls may practice races, jumps, discuss throw and javelin throw and thus

Games and Sports are important part our lives. That’s why most of the doctors
advise us to have yoga, exercise, playing games & sports, etc. to be fit.
From our childhood we mainly play various games and sports. We play indoor games
like Chess, Ludo, Carrom Board, cards games, etc., & outdoor games like Cricket,
Football, and Tennis, etc. So there are much more good sides of playing games and
sports.
In our daily life we spend most of our time within the workplace, then go home and
have food & drinks and then go to sleep. Students spend more time reading books
and doing homework for the next day. Women are spending their time within the home
for doing various household works.
When we don’t play games and sports, we really don’t know how badly we are doing
for our health. “All work and no play” may lead to more obesity, sleepless night,
indigestion of foods and lot more problems will create in our body. We should
understand the value of games and sports.
That’s why we need to play some sports and games in our spare time to have one of
the best exercises in the open air.
• Fresh air which contains more oxygen than the air in a confined room,
• Relaxes our body & mind which will help us to increase the concentration of our
mind and
• Improves immunity,
• Develops personality,
• Acquiring leadership qualities, etc.

The Benefits of Traditional Sports and Games: What they can Bring to
Children and Youth of Today
• TSG have old cultural roots but can be promoted like something new and
fun
• TSG work in the local context and TSG are visible and practical, in contrast to
Olympic Sport as a global phenomenon.
• TSG take their starting point in local needs and possibilities.
• TSG are heritage, culture and history that are worthwhile to learn about.
• TSG reinforce cultural identities for many participants.
• TSG have health benefits that can be seen as a part of healthy and active
living.
• TSG have a socializing influence to good morals when they emphasizes
fairness, respect for diversity and ability and cooperation in the game.
Participants make their own rules, unlike in sports where judges stand outside
the game and make rules for all.
• TSG, in general, are easy to do - with simple tools and few rules and easy to
facilitate.
• TSG are an activity that can involve all ages playing together. Many games
can be adapted for persons with disabilities.
• The tools to TSG are simple, inexpensive and can be homemade and carried
around easily.
Traditional games have been passed down from one generation to another and
their origins go back centuries. Whereas modern games usually encompass digital
games and relatively new game inventions. Modern games have their fair share
of cognitive benefits ranging from improved problem-solving skills to spatial navigation
abilities. The digital games also get children better acquainted with technology- a vital
component of modern day living. However, modern games also tend to be isolating,
victory-oriented and in most cases, sedentary. Hence, we feel that it is important to
inject a few traditional games into your playtime to counteract these ‘adverse’ effects
and better optimize the benefits of taking the time off to play!

Module 1
Philippine Traditional Games and Sports
When we are playing traditional Filipino games we are doing many things.
1) Heart and circulatory system: Regular exercise or playing healthy games makes
the heart muscles stronger and more efficient. The heart-beats of an athlete do not
increase appreciably even when doing something requiring physical exertion, and
revert very soon to the normal rate afterwards. In contrast, even a little exertion sends
the pulse rate of a sedentary individual rocketing up, and it takes time for the heart to
settle down to its normal rate of beating. The blood vessels dilate during exercise, and
so more blood reaches the muscles. It has been found that during vigorous or rapid
exercise, the blood circulation in certain muscles and organs increases 25 to 30 times,
thus supplying the muscles and organs with more oxygen and a larger number of red
blood corpuscles.
2) The respiratory system: Breathing becomes not only more rapid, but also deeper,
thus making increased quantities of oxygen available.
4) The skin: The pores of the skin open up during exercise. The result is a healthier
skin, because of more efficient disposal of impurities and dirt.
5) Temperature of the body: The temperature of the body rises during playing. This
promotes the burning up of the toxic substances in the body.

LESSON 3
The House of Representatives approved on third and final reading House Bill
8626 or the proposed “Philippine Indigenous Games Preservation Act of 2017” which
seeks to preserve indigenous games to ensure that future generations of Filipinos can
still enjoy them.
16
Module 1
Philippine Traditional Games and Sports
Furthermore, it states that Article 31.1 of the United Nations Declaration on the
Rights of Indigenous Peoples (IPs) enjoins all state signatories to take effective
measures to recognize and protect the exercise of the indigenous peoples’ rights
which include the maintenance, control, and development of their cultural heritage,
traditional knowledge and traditional expression, oral tradition, literature, designs,
sports and traditional games, among others.
The bill seeks to mandate the National Commission for Culture and the Arts
(NCCA), in coordination with the Department of Education (DepEd), to initiate
measures to preserve indigenous games in the country, including 1) their inclusion in
the appropriate part of the curriculum in the basic education system of the schools; 2)
the preservation of such games either by documentary or other useful means; and 3)
the holding of regular demonstration of such games in national events and
appropriate school activities.
Likewise, the NCCA shall conduct research on the various sports traditionally
played by different indigenous groups within the region to ensure the preservation and
development of these games.
The host LGU shall have the prerogative to choose which sports events shall
be included in the regional and national indigenous sports competitions.
As the lead agencies, the NCCA and the DepEd, in coordination with the PSC,
POC and LGUs, shall promulgate the implementing rules and regulations of the Act 60
days after its effectivity.
Belaro said the country is rich in cultural tradition which tends to be slowly
modified by the onslaught of digital modernization.
“Part of our rich cultural heritage are indigenous games such as sepak takraw and the
like,” said Belaro.
Co-authors of the bill include Majority Leader Rolando Andaya, Jr. Minority Leader
Danilo Suarez, Deputy Majority Leader Rodante Marcoleta, Reps. Gus Tambunting,
Ann Hofer, Rhea Vergara, Anthony Bravo, Arnolfo Teves, Rogelio Pacquiao, and
Cheryl Deloso-Montalla, among others. | Eddie Galvez

A. Magna Kultura
Magna Kultura, a Philippine based NGO that aims to implement educational,
socio - cultural programs in order to strengthen the Filipino well-being are responsibly
vigilant with regards to the fact that Filipino children nowadays spend they childhood
playtime on Internet cafes or with their handheld game consoles instead of socializing
with other children playing the traditional street games that for years is a culture and
a norm for a typical Filipino child. Magna Kultura is seriously advocating such concern
by holding tournaments and educating the children in their schools all focusing on
traditional Filipino Games. But why do they need to go this far in promoting and
encouraging young children to play the games?

instill patriotism and nationality in a child's mind. Aside from significant sentimental
reasons others believe that it should be preserved and thought to the Filipino children
for they think that Filipino games like Tumbang Preso, Sipa, Patintero and others alike
help improve a child's physical and motor skills as well as strategic logic and since
most Filipino Games are team games, teamwork and sportsmanship as well as self
confidence and leadership skills are being emphasized on a child while playing these
games.
B. Pinoy Republic
Pinoy Republic group aims to preserve, revive, enhance all Philippine
traditional games and to promote nationalism, strengthen family ties, involve the
community in worthwhile activities, and keep the children in school through games and
sports. Playing games is also important in part of growing up and in the learning
process of the child because, it enhances the social skills of every child and it also
involves educational influence of games on the physical, mental, emotional, social and
moral vitality of a child.
C. TAFISA
It was in Oslo in 1969, when the first so called ‘Trim and Fitness Conference’
was held with eight participating countries from West Europe. These conferences that
were organized every two years from then on, developed into an unofficial steering
medium for the international Sport for All Movement, and can be rightly considered the
cradle for TAFISA. As the result, TAFISA was founded in Bordeaux in 1991 by 40
countries.
TAFISA has worked hard to become the leading international Sport for All
association over the past 20 years. But there is so much more to be done. Being a
leader implies responsibility, innovation, strength and continuous improvement, and
TAFISA intends to embrace and enhance its position in the global Sport for All
Movement, for the betterment of TAFISA, its members and the Movement itself.
TAFISA’s action plan for the future incorporates both politics and practice. Particularly
in recent years, TAFISA has led an initiative to bring leading international
organizations together to build a new solidarity in Sport for All. In the coming years,
TAFISA will build on this strong start to raise the profile of Sport for All and physical
activity, and place it on the agenda of leading organizations and leading individuals
around the world. TAFISA’s focus will be on creating a truly global platform for
international exchange, debate and cooperation, and strengthen the political voice of
Sport for All and physical activity, so that ultimately, through crosssectoral cooperation,
Sport for All and physical activity will be accessible to all.
19
Module 1
Philippine Traditional Games and Sports
TAFISA also recognizes that its members immediately benefit from the
practical, on-the-ground programs that people around the world can participate in and
enjoy. That is why TAFISA will not lose its focus on providing Sport for All and physical
activity programs which are relevant and in demand. TAFISA will continue to improve
upon its already successful practical programs, and work with its members to make
them accessible to as many global citizens as possible.
