Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games appearances

The Philippine delegation competed in 17 out of 21 sports in the 10-day event, with over 105 athletes joining the games, led by 2016 Summer Olympics silver medalist Hidilyn Diaz.[1][2] Diaz was initially announced as the country's flagbearer but she declined.[3] The chef de mission of the delegation was Monsour Del Rosario.[4]

At the end of the games, the Philippine team brought home 30 medals, including two jiu-jitsu golds, the best performance the country has ever performed in the history of Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games.

The country also competed at electronic sports which was a demonstration event[5] participating in all four video games contested. The country secured a bronze medal in Dota 2.
