​菲大體聯永遠榮譽會長卡洛辭世 
執行長暨秘書長林剛陵撰文弔唁


菲律賓大學體育聯合會(FESSAP)懷著無比沉痛的心情,沉痛宣布本會永遠榮譽會長、執行副主席兼執行委員會共同主席——羅伯特・米爾頓・卡洛教授,於2026年1月1日在澳門醫院安詳辭世,享壽79歲。

卡洛教授一生致力於菲律賓大學體育的發展,其卓越的領導能力、無私的奉獻精神與宏遠的視野,對我國大專院校體育體系的成長與國際化,具有不可磨滅的深遠影響。他對學生運動員的關懷與付出,以及對FESSAP的貢獻,將永遠被銘記與敬仰。

2025年11月29日,卡洛教授仍不辭勞苦,親赴澳門出席亞洲大學體育總會(AUSF)會員大會,並由德拉薩大學達斯馬里尼亞斯校區的傑拉多・塞吉奧教授陪同。即便在人生最後的數月,他對推動大學體育發展的熱忱依然堅定不移。

卡洛教授生前最為掛念、尚未完成的重要使命之一,為他於1998年親手創立的「菲律賓校際、學院暨大學體育協會(PISCUAA)」之全面復興。本人謹在此鄭重承諾,將承繼其遺志,持續推動PISCUAA在FESSAP及菲律賓中學體育聯合會(PISSA)架構下茁壯發展,以告慰其在天之靈。

自1999年FESSAP成立以來,卡洛教授便是我最重要的夥伴與分身。我們攜手打造聯合會,他促成PISCUAA、PRISAA及SCUAA等組織加入,而我則引入菲華體育聯會(PICAA)、菲律賓籃球協會(BAP)、MASA等聯盟。當時,卡洛教授擔任菲律賓理工大學(TUP)體育主任,FESSAP首個秘書處亦設於該校。

我們共同努力,建立一個向全國大專院校敞開的大學體育體系,至今已吸納超過600所學院與大學成為會員,並以全國最低廉的會費運作。我們的初衷從非營利,而是為年輕運動員開啟通往國際舞台的大門。

2007年,FESSAP成功加入國際大學體育總會(FISU),這是菲律賓大學體育史上的重要里程碑。當年,我與卡洛教授親赴泰國曼谷,拜會時任FISU主席喬治・基里安(George Killian)——他亦是我自1998年於國際籃總(FIBA)服務期間結識的多年摯友。儘管當時遭遇少數亞洲人士的阻撓,基里安主席仍明確向我們保證,FESSAP終將獲得接納。其諾言最終實現,也讓卡洛教授的遠見正式登上國際舞台。

其後,卡洛教授曾出任FESSAP會長,並長期擔任會員委員會主席與世界大學生運動會監督委員會主席,同時亦兼任菲律賓定向越野協會、副會長、菲律賓合球協會副會長,以及菲律賓校際體育協會副會長,皆為國際體育組織所承認之團體。他亦為FESSAP執行委員會共同主席、菲律賓大學排球聯盟的重要推手、亞洲大學籃球總會(AUBF)前會長、亞太大學體育聯盟(APUSU)副會長,以及菲律賓籃球協會(BAP)會長,對體育界貢獻卓著。

我們共同的另一項心願,是建立一座永久性的FESSAP會址,作為聯合會逾25年歷史的象徵與傳承。此一願景雖尚未完成,卻將列為我們持續努力的使命,並以他的名義完成。
謹代表菲律賓大學體育聯合會,向卡洛教授的家屬致以最深切的哀悼與慰問。我們與家屬同感哀傷,並將在其返國後,就相關事宜保持密切聯繫,提供一切必要的支持與協助。

卡洛教授的精神與貢獻,將永遠激勵FESSAP以及整個菲律賓大學體育界。他的身影,將長存於無數受其啟發的學生運動員與體育同道心中。

我將永遠懷念這位並肩作戰的戰友、夥伴與摯友。終有一日,我們必將於永恆中再相會。

謹此致哀
——菲律賓大學體育聯合會執行長暨秘書長林剛陵

FESSAP Condolence Message
It is with profound sorrow that the Federation of School Sports Association of the Philippines (FESSAP) announces the passing of Prof. Robert Milton A. Calo, our esteemed Executive Vice President and Co-Chair of the FESSAP Executive Committee, on January 1, 2026.
Prof. Calo’s leadership, dedication, and vision were instrumental in shaping the growth of university sports in the Philippines. His tireless commitment to student-athletes and his invaluable contributions to FESSAP will forever be remembered and honored.
​
On November 29, 2025, Prof. Calo attended the General Assembly of the Asian University Sports Federation (AUSF) in Macao, accompanied by Prof. Gerardo Sergio of De La Salle University–Dasmariñas. Even in his final months, his devotion to advancing university sports remained steadfast.

Prof. Calo leaves behind unfinished work close to his heart, particularly the revival of the Philippine Inter-Schools, Colleges, and Universities Athletic Association (PISCUAA), which he founded in 1998. In his memory, I vow to continue this mission, ensuring that PISCUAA thrives under the affiliation of FESSAP and PISSA, as he wished.

Since the founding of FESSAP in 1999, Prof. Calo was my alter ego and partner in building the federation. He brought in organizations such as PISCUAA, PRISAA, and SCUAA, while I contributed the Basketball Association of the Philippines, PICAA, MASA, and other leagues. At that time, Prof. Calo was the Athletic Director of the Technological University of the Philippines (TUP), where the first FESSAP Secretariat was housed.

Together, we worked tirelessly to establish a system that welcomed over 600 colleges and universities into FESSAP, with the most affordable membership fee in the country. Our goal was never financial gain, but to open doors for student-athletes to compete internationally.

In 2007, FESSAP achieved membership in the International University Sports Federation (FISU). This milestone was realized when Robert and I traveled to Bangkok, Thailand, to meet then FISU President George Killian, a longtime friend from the basketball community dating back to my years with FIBA in 1998, when George himself was FIBA President.

Despite opposition from a few individuals in Asia who sought to block our membership, President Killian assured Robert and me that FESSAP would be welcomed into FISU. His promise was fulfilled, and with it, Robert’s vision for Philippine university sports gained international recognition.
 
Prof. Calo later served as the first FESSAP President and continued to lead as Chairman of the Membership Committee and Universiade Monitoring Committee. He also held key positions as Vice President of the Orienteering-Philippines, the Korfball Association of the Philippines, and the Philippine Inter-School Sport Association (PISSA)—all affiliated with international federations. He was Co-Chair of the FESSAP Executive Committee, a guiding force in the Philippine University Volleyball League, former President of the Asian University Basketball Federation (AUBF), Vice President of the Asia Pacific University Sports Union (APUSU), and President of the Basketball Association of the Philippines (BAP).

One of our shared dreams was to build a permanent FESSAP Headquarters, a lasting monument to more than 25 years of history. This vision will remain part of our unfinished business, but it will be pursued in his honor.

On behalf of the federation, we extend our heartfelt condolences to the family of Prof. Calo. We share in your grief and stand with you during this difficult time. Financial matters and related concerns will be discussed upon your return to the Philippines, and we will remain in close communication to provide support.

Prof. Calo’s legacy will continue to inspire FESSAP and the entire university sports community. His memory will live on in the countless student-athletes and colleagues whose lives he touched.
I will deeply miss my brother-in-arms, my partner, and my friend.

Someday, we shall meet again eternally.

With deepest sympathy,

Graham C. Lim
CEO/Secretary General, FESSAP Inc.
