Top sports honchos grace PSA Forum's first-ever online session

Going exclusively online, the Philippine Sportswriters Association Forum will have two of the top sports heads in the country on its June 2 return.

In line with the restrictions on gatherings set by the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus, the country's premier scribes are back after a four-month hiatus.

Taking the stage are Philippine Olympic Committee president Abraham Tolentino and Philippine Sports Commission chair William Ramirez, whose most recent appearances of the pair came during last year, where the country hosted and defended home turf in the Southeast Asian Games.

Both of them will take the podium on the resuming sporting activities as it was grinded into a total halt owing to the coronavirus pandemic which led to the world's longest lockdown period, which is set to be downgraded a day before the forum.

Technology will be at the forefront of the two-part session, in which it will be held by a video conference for the first time in its 70-year history.

The PSA Forum will be shown live on its Facebook page as well.
