In continuation of the meeting, managers and coaches of each sports federation in alphabetical form were then asked of their updates, concerns, and other things they need to discuss to the organizing committee that could help strengthen the each team’s preparations before the games.
Nearly all associations are set and have started their rigorous training everyday that lasts 2 hours a day and at least six days a week to help them to be conditioned and ready to capture the highest medal which is Gold. Men’s Canoe Coach, Tino Faatuala even reiterated that there will be guaranteed gold for team Palau Men’s canoe just like what they did back in 2006 Micro Games in Saipan.
