Project Description:	Missionaries in the Philippines have requested that SportsPlus send a team to work with them using sports to minister to the people in their communities. Volunteers will work in local universities, high schools, and around community parks using various sports. Pick-up games, sports camps, and other methods will be used to draw crowds and build friendships. There will also be other planned events during the evenings to invite others to have dinner, go shopping, and engage in other activities to build friendships. There are over 2 million in the province of Batangas, and only 2% of them are evangelical Christians. Much work is needed in this region, and sports will be a great platform to help the missionaries do ground-breaking work to reach this nation for Christ.
