This document presents a team-building activity using sports as a platform; specifically, using the Traditional Filipino Street Games as activities. The program is organized by Magna Kultura Foundation, the National Organizer of the Filipino Games in the Philippines.
The Palarong Pinoy events are conducted in a Mini-Olympics sports format with referees, marshals, and a tournament system that organizes adults into teams with Team Captains and Coaches. Adults are immersed into fun games like: Patintero, Tumbang Preso, Piko, Luksong Lubid, Luksong Tinik, Chinese Garter, Sipang Bilangan, and various Pinoy relay race games.
Larong Pinoy Games are equally fun and challenging. It’s an unforgettable experience that each and everyone will cherish, as it will bring out the child in every participant. It will bring back the good ‘ol days when they all use to play it.
The program is organized to make the Traditional Filipino Street Games available for adults. Organizing Larong Pinoy Sports Fest for Private companies is among the cultural entrepreneurship approaches of Magna Kultura to revive the Games of our Heritage (Laro ng Lahi) among Filipino adults who use to play the games; so that they too can teach their children how to play the games. Thus, bring back the Filipino games back in the mainstream of Philippine society, among children and adults.

11. ☛ Palarong Pinoy Mini-Olympics is a one-of-a-kind event activity that will surely be the “talk-of-
the-office” ; everyone will re-live their childhood memories and discuss with fellow-employees.
It’s one-of-a-kind. It breathes youthfulness among employees. It bonds the young and old.
☛ Unlike the regular sports activities (like basketball or volleyball), with Larong Pinoy almost everyone
could play; even non-players could cheerfully participate, actively cheering & jeering at the
sidelines.
THE ADVANTAGES OF A
LARONG PINOY SPORTSFEST
A Hassle-Free Sports Fest Event for HRD & The Sports Committee
Organizing a company event could be a tedious task for internal organizers. While it will be fun
for employees playing in the event, it can be exhausting for the HRD and/or Sport fest Committee,
“robbing” them of the fun that they to should be enjoying.
It’s all about CREATING IMPACT in the lives of employees and letting them feel the Value of the
company they work for. The advantage of having a professionallyorganized corporate event are:
☛ It takes away from employees the hassle of organizing and coordinating everything. It will let
the staff just do more productive work for the company while the event gets organized properly.
☛ It ensures for a more professional conduct of an event with an “Olympic”-like atmosphere,
letting employees partake in an event that is professionallyorganized.
The conduct of the program is more professional --- it’s like a real “Olympics”! And employees
would definitely feel like being a part of what seems like a “big” event. And every employee
would credit the company’s effort for giving them the best that they deserve.
☛ Employees would see the difference of a professionally organized event: with all the tournament
systemand format; with the all the game marshals, materials and ground set-up.
☛ The impact that it creates will surely be credited to the company’s image of putting value in the
corporate team bonding activity. Instead of having criticism for a poorly organized affair, it
makes each and every employee value the presence of the company in their lives.
IT’S AN EVENT THAT HAPPENS ONLY ONCE-A-YEAR.
A WELL ORGANIZED COMPANY EVENT WILL GIVE MORE LASTINGMEMORIES THAT WILL IMPACT COMPANY
LOYALTY OF EVERY EMPLOYEE. IT’S ALL ABOUT GIVINGTHE STAFF & EMPLOYEES THE BREAK THAT THEY DESERVE.
Larong Pinoy is the Game of our Heritage.
A truly Filipino company can make a difference
among their employees and in the business community
