ANG Filipino pickleball standout na si Rain Isabella Astaño, 14, ay nakatakdang i-rerepresent ang Pilipinas sa Pickleball World Cup 2026 sa Da Nang, Vietnam, mula August 30 to September 6.

Bilang proud member ng Junior Philippine National Team, si Rain ay makikipag-compete sa ilalim ng -18 division, at haharapin niya ang mga world’s best young pickleball players.

Tinawag itong “historic achievement for Pinoy Pickleball Club DXB,” dahil siya ang kauna -unahang club’s athlete mula United Arab Emirates (UAE) na mag-rerepresent sa Pilipinas sa international stage.

Mula sa mga courts ng Dubai patungong world stage, “Rain’s journey is a shining example of dedication, perseverance, and the limitless potential of young Filipino athletes.”

“Let’s all rally behind her and cheer her on as she proudly carries the Philippine flag at the Pickleball World Cup 2026. Good luck, Rain—we’re all rooting for you,” ani Engr. Jun Lachica Mamitag Retuta Lachica,” isang Dubai-based company executive at native ng Orion, Bataan.
