Aljon Salonga, one of the top performers of the Philippine Water Polo Team during the 2019 Southeast Asian (SEA) Games here, suffered a dislocated right elbow after he figured in a motorcycle accident Tuesday.
Salonga was alone when the accident happened in Las Pinas City, and he was immediately brought to the hospital for treatment. He had surgery to repair his elbow last Wednesday.
Charlie Dy, the CEO of Virtual Playground where Salonga is a talent, said that the water polo star is recovering well after the surgery.
“He is doing well after the operation. Aside from the dislocated elbow, he also suffered a cut on his left leg but both injuries were not serious and he is fine right now,” said Dy.

As the City of Manila prepares its vaccination program for its residents against COVID-19, former national water polo team star Dale Evangelista sees it as a very good sign to roll out the sports programs of Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso.
With the help of the national team, Evangelista said Tuesday they are ready to jumpstart Domagoso’s desire of turning the city as the country’s water polo capital.
“It’s a very good development considering that there are plans now on how to proceed with the vaccination program once the vaccines are here. As what the Mayor mentioned, it’s important to get the vaccination before we start with the sports programs,” said Evangelista.
