The Quezon City local government unit (LGU) officially opened an Olympic-sized swimming pool and other facilities at the Amoranto Sports Complex on Saturday. According to the Quezon City Government Facebook page, Amoranto Sports Complex inaugurated its three-lane swimming pool, offices, elevator, lifeguard station, and 480-seat capacity bleachers.

Three lifeguards were also deployed to ensure the safety of pool users. The pool is open every day to individual or group swimmers from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. There will be an entrance fee of P100 per head and P1,500 for 15 pax. If over 15 pax, there will be an additional P100 per pax (maximum of 20 pax per group) Quezon City student residents will have a 20% discount. In his State of the Nation Address last July 28, President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. expressed concern over the growing number of overweight Filipino adults, calling for a nationwide shift to healthier, more active lifestyles through accessible community-based fitness initiatives. Marcos then announced that the Philippine Sports Commission will open its facilities to the public for free. "Simula ngayon, bubuksan ng Philippine Sports Commission sa publiko ang kanilang mga track and field oval sa Pasig, Maynila, at Baguio, upang makapag-jogging na kayo nang libre," he said. (Starting today, the Philippine Sports Commission will open its track and field ovals in Pasig, Manila, and Baguio to the public for free jogging.) Among the PSC facilities opened to the public is the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex's track and field oval in Malate, Manila. —Mariel Celine Serquiña/KG, GMA Integrated News
