also conferred with the Presidential Achievement Award by the Philippine Sportswriters Association (PSA). Team manager Dan Palami was also recognized for his contribution in forming the national team and was named Executive of the Year. The win attributed to the increase of interest of football in the Philippines and was followed by the Philippines' successful bid to qualify for the 2012 AFC Challenge Cup and the second round of the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifiers in 2011.
