The PSFI is also composed of James Leetong as 1st Vice President and Roselyn Dayanan as 2nd Vice President.
Janet T. Sy is the secretary general, Rhea Mae Relampagos (treasurer) and Board Members Engr. Ralph Yee and Dr. Rover Magdale.
The Board of Commissioners are Jonna Mae Cabasan (Women in Sports), Dr. Rover Magdale (Medical and Doping), Chino Sy (Athlete), Atty. Erika Aira Peralta (Legal), Sydney Sy (Technical), Ace Larida (Differently Abled), Roselyn Dayanan (Ethics and Disciplinary), Jerry Legaspi (Sport and Active Society), Gerard Arce (Commission for Sambo Development in Universities and Schools) and Ferdinand Galido (Marketing and Media).
