Vidanes also told us that there are times that he commited mistakes, and for that he was scolded. "Our coach is a constructive critic. He corrects our wrongdoings. I was once scolded, but I dont think Sir Alejo was not really that angry. He just wanted us to learn." His loved ones, family and friends are his inspiration. It motivates him

to strive better especially when they are watching the game. Though he is passionate about archery at this time, he still sees his future as a marine captain because it is his ultimate goal

Vidanes encouraged more students to join the archery club and be a player to represent our school in the future competitions. He even stressed that sports like this help one become healthier, focused, and disciplined.
