Edgardo Maerina [national], PHI

He represented the Philippines at the 2022 Asian Indoor Rowing Championships, winning silver in the U23 men's 2000m event. (tiebreakertimes, 18 Jan 2022)

He played basketball and athletics from age seven, before being recruited by the Philippine Rowing Association in 2015. "Back then, I had no idea what rowing was all about. After three months of trying to learn, I began to enjoy and soon realised the potential of me being good at it." (sports, 11 May 2021; cnnphilippines, 10 May 2021; philstar, 08 Dec 2019)

He was scouted by rowing coach Justine Kyle Vinas, who invited him to join the national team. "I always grab those opportunities to be invited to play. If I couldn't perform well in the tryouts and enjoy the sport, then I'd return home. But the opposite happened with rowing. I love the sport because it gives me freedom and happiness."
