The 2024 Palarong Panlalawigan officially commenced on Sunday, April 14, at the Narra Sports Complex in the town of Narra, Palawan.
The opening parade was attended energetically by athletes, coaches, trainers, mentors, delegation officials, LGU officials, and teachers from various towns.
Themed “Harmony in Motion: Uniting Community Through Sports,” this year’s Provincial Meet features thousands of Palaweño athletes from 23 municipalities competing in various sporting events until April 19.
For the first time, the delegation from the Municipality of Kalayaan participated in the Provincial Games with over 20 athletes.
Meanwhile, in his message, Governor Socrates expressed his joy, “Masaya po ako sapagkat ang palarong pampalakasan ay bahagi ng ating paghubog sa ating mga kabataan. Ang hinuhubog natin hindi lamang ang lakas ng pangangatawan kundi paghubog din sa kabuting asal at sa pangkaloobang bertud gaya ng lakas ng loob ng pagiging mapagpasensiya, ng pakikisama at pakikipagkaibigan sa kapwa. Ngunit higit pa riyan, masaya rin ako na kasama ako ngayon sapagkat ang Palarong Panlalawigan ay isa sa ilan pang pagkakataon upang magkita-kita ang lahat ng bayan ng lalawigan dito sa bayan ng Narra upang pagtibayin ang ating solidarity bilang sambayang Palaweño.”
The event was made possible through the collaboration of the Department of Education (DepEd) Palawan, the Provincial Sports Division of the Palawan Provincial Government, and other government agencies.
