With AKTV, Younghusbands hope to spread the gospel of the beautiful game



For James and Phil Younghusband, life has turned 180° for them. The two started out on their journey with the Chelsea Football Club’s Youth Academy. Incredibly, nearly 10 years later, as they finished Year One of the Younghusband Football Academy, the national football team mainstays signed on as Football Ambassadors for AKTV and have reconnected with the club of their youth in the Philippines of all places.

In a simple press luncheon held at Masas in Greenbelt 2, AKTV head of sports Vitto Lazatin said that the country’s newest sports superstation’s mission “is to bring sports to every television set in every country and to make sports bigger than it currently is. We have an excellent opportunity to elevate sports now that what we’re showing is available on free television.”
