TV5 to air 17th Asian Games starting September 19


TV5 will have coverage for the upcoming 17th Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea, kicking it off with the Opening Ceremonies at the Incheon Asiad Main Stadium on September 19.

The Opening Ceremonies will be a hodgepodge of the K-Pop phenomenon, with the likes of JYJ, EXO, CNBlue and PSY performing, adhering to the message: "4.5 Billion Asians' dream, Asia as One."

150 Filipinos will be participating in 28 sports disciplines at the quadrennial meet, led of course, by the Gilas Pilipinas men's basketball team. Other prominent athletes competing include Marestella Torres (athletics - long jump), Jasmine Alkhaldi and Jesse Lacuna (swimming), Hidilyn Diaz (weightlifting), and the Philippine Volcanoes (rugby).

Sports5's coverage of the event will involve the trio of Dennis Principe, Atty. Charlie Cuna and Patricia Bermudez-Hizon providing updates involving our athletes in Incheon. Telecast of the different events will be on TV5, AksyonTV, HYPER, SMART's Viewstream and Cignal's PPV channels.
