Azkals 7s
The Azkals are a seven-a-side football team in the Philippines. History The Philippine national eleven-a-side football team was known after the moniker, the Azkals or the street dogs in Filipino as a reference to the team's mixed-heritage lineage and its perceived lackluster reception. The moniker was officially in use until 2023 when team manager Dan Palami left the national team staff. With consent from the Philippine Football Federation, the Azkals name was adopted by an independent 7-a-side club launched in August 2024. It is led by Palami and former national team players. They had an exhibition game against personalities from the Philippine entertainment industry in the Azkals Celebrity Cup. The Azkals made their competitive debut at the 2024 Asia 7s Championship in Malaysia. They finished as runners-up losing 1–2 to Japan Football 7 Society Association's team.
