In April 2012, he signed a three-year contract and transferred to TV5.[8]

Ramsay has also been a competitor for the Philippines national ultimate frisbee team. He was the ninth top scorer at the 13th World Ultimate and Guts Championship 2012.[10]

Ramsay is currently the head ambassador of the Philippine national beach football team, and was set to participate in the 2013 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup Asian qualifiers, but ultimately did not due to his commitment to Kidlat, where he was playing the lead role.[11]
