Payatas FC

Payatas FC Payatas FC is the football team run by the Fairplay for All Foundation. We level the playing field!

Payatas FC started in January, 2011, after the Philippine National team became famous from reaching the 2010 Suzuki Cup Semi Finals. The children in the area wanted to learn football and so Roy Moore began coaching them each week on the local basketball court. Many of the players in the beginning were working children, scavenging from trucks as they rolled into Payatas or washing plastic and other

materials found by siblings. Through the Fairplay for All Foundation, many of the children of Payatas FC are now sponsored and so have either stopped working completely, or don't work so often and so they can focus entirely on school and football. Some of the players have huge potential, with one girl already joining the U14 National girls team previously, while others have similar potential to represent the country despite, and sometimes because, of the hardships they've faced in life already.

Happening right now at Payatas Sports Center: our U13 and U15 teams are training and preparing for their upcoming leagues!

Before their session, four different age groups had already used the sports center today. After them, our men’s and women’s teams will take over the court—our mens team for fitness training and our womens as they prepare for High 5.

We’re grateful to have a safe space where our players can learn, have fun, and continue improving.

Vamos, Payatas FC! ❤️

This week, we started our Touch Rugby training sessions, led by Coach Dhuds Lagata and Coach Shiela.

Last year, , a national rugby star, and his family visited Payatas. They generously donated several rugby balls and supported our other programs. As part of this partnership, they continue to support us in teaching children in Payatas the game of rugby.

Since this is a new sport in Payatas, many young people are curious and eager to try it. Training sessions are held every Wednesday and Thursday from 3:00–4:30 PM. In the future, we hope to expand the program by adding more age groups and offering additional training sessions for everyone.

As always, it’s best to start small. Once we master the basics and build a strong foundation, we can continue to grow and expand the program.

If anyone would like to get involved and teach us more about touch rugby, please send a message to Coach Dhuds. 🙂

Last Sunday, February 8, 2026, our U9 and U13 teams competed in the 7s Football League. It was the very first time our U9 team joined a 7s competition. Their main goal was simply to enjoy the game, smile, and have fun. It was so nice to see how cute and excited they were on the field.

Meanwhile, our U13 team started very strong, topping the table after winning their first three games. We could clearly see their determination, consistency, and the effort they put into attending training sessions to improve. Great job, everyone, for your sipag and dedication. We are definitely improving!

A huge thank you to our coaches for making this experience memorable and enjoyable for our kids.
