After years of playing sports, Hamid entered the 2026 MSUSAA competition with a different goal: to compete, to enjoy the game, and to give everything he had on the court. When the final match was over, he and his teammates had done more than win a championship. They became the first-ever MSUSAA Pickleball Champions in the MSU System.

Hamid had to divide his time between training and the demands of college life. Thesis work, coding laboratories, school requirements, and training often competed for his attention. There were moments when exhaustion made him question whether he could continue.
But he did.
His journey into the sport began with curiosity. After winning the 2024 MSUSAA Lawn Tennis Championship in General Santos City, Hamid noticed several of his teammates shifting toward pickleball. He decided to try it himself after sir Huzaifah Dimaporo sponsored his first paddle and encouraged him to join tournaments.
What started as a simple attempt eventually led to a historic finish.
For Hamid, however, the championship was never only about the medal. His greatest inspiration remained his mother, Agnes, who could not always watch their games because of their busy family carinderia. Still, he knew her support was always there.

The gold became another milestone in a sporting journey that had already brought him a 2024 tennis championship. Now, he had become a champion in two different sports, an achievement he says he will always be proud of.

For him, the real victory lies in enjoying the game, showing good sportsmanship, and remaining united with his teammates. The championship became meaningful not simply because they won, but because they fought together and shared the experience together.
The medal will eventually rest somewhere safe. The games will become memories. But the record they made will remain.
They were the first.
