Mayor Azcué stated first that the Special Athlete of the Year Award “is a very important event because it has many components. One has to do with the values that sport promotes, which the country needs to move forward, such as effort, sacrifice, and teamwork, because even when it is a so-called individual sport, there is always a team”.
At the same time, he pondered that “adapted sport has another component, which is inclusion. Behind it there is a family, there is a group of people who are also part of all that work and all that magic that happens in sport, which is why it is a tremendous tool for human transformation for everyone”.
Finally, Azcué valued the work done by the coaches, the family, and the athletes, and being able to recognize them “is really very important, since the effort they made throughout the year is being rewarded”.
For her part, Ivana Pérez first thanked the families of each of those recognized for their support, as they play a more than important role in the athletic development of each of the athletes.
“We are very happy to be able to hold this awards ceremony; our athletes fill us with pride as they work with so much effort to always keep Concordia's sports at the highest level.”
