Philippine Softball: From Grassroots to Global under Jean Henri Lhuillier

In the international sports arena, only a few Philippine teams can rival the achievements and successes garnered by Philippine National Softball teams. For more than 20 years, the many different members of multi-time SEA games gold medalists RP Blu Boys and RP Blu Girls accomplished their dreams by honorably and triumphantly representing the country in a lot of prestigious international softball competitions. 

Softball is not a commonly played sport in the Philippines, thus, it is quite extraordinary that Filipino softball teams have proven to be highly competitive and even victorious in international tournaments throughout many years. 

Worthy of note is the outstanding showing of the RP Blu Boys and RP Blu Girls in international competitions has catapulted the Philippines to the number 14 ranking of the World Baseball Softball Confederation (WBSC) in both the men’s and women’s division. Last year, no less than four national teams have qualified for the World Cup, namely the RP Blu Girls, RP Blu Boys, U15 Women’s and the Philippine Co-Ed Slow Pitch Team.

Meet the characters of “Lisa Frankenstein,” starring Kathryn Newton, Cole Sprouse and Liza Soberano, your pre-Valentine’s movie, in cinemas Feb. 7

Lisa Frankenstein director Zelda Williams says that her enthusiasm for the film was rooted in her deep admiration for Diablo Cody’s singular voice as a screenwriter, especially when it comes to the characters in her stories. 

“The thing I enjoy most about her writing is the personality infused into all of it,” says Williams, who had auditioned for Juno (also written by Cody, for which she won the Best Original Screenplay Academy Award) very early in her acting career. “It’s clear immediately who these characters are, whether they’re for you or not. That sort of strong flavor choice will always be my cup of tea.”

In Lisa Frankenstein, it’s 1989 and Lisa Swallows (Kathryn Newton), an awkward 17-year-old, is trying to adjust to a new school and a new life after her mother’s death and her father’s hasty remarriage. Despite the unwavering support offered by her plucky cheerleader step sister Taffy (Liza Soberano), Lisa only finds solace in the abandoned cemetery near her house, where she tends to the grave of a young man who died in 1837 – and whose corpse she unwittingly reanimates (Cole Sprouse). Feeling obligated to help the poor soul regain his humanity, Lisa embarks on a quest to breathe new life into her long-dead new companion. All she needs to succeed are some freshly harvested body parts and Taffy’s broken tanning bed.
