Historic, where before the country did not occupy a decent space in regional football, now it pierced into medal contention. Football is one sport where height is not might, but speed and agility characteristic of men and women of smaller frames.Proof is the first gold medal by Justin Kobe Macario in the men's individual freestyle poomsae.

The golden boy of gymnastics is shorter than five feet, but worth more than a basketball fleet.
