Organized by Redes Argentinas Asociación Civil, with the support of the Municipality of Concordia, the 1st Mixed 3x3 Basketball Tournament will take place this Saturday, with the participation of both federated and amateur players.
For this reason, this Friday night, Mayor Francisco Azcué, together with the Government Secretary Luciano Dell´Olio, participated in the presentation of said tournament, which marks a turning point in Concordia, with the aim of promoting inclusive sports practice, as the participation of both women and men is mandatory in all lineups.
When taking the floor, Azcué highlighted and thanked the work that Redes Argentinas Asociación Civil has been carrying out through various actions that seek inclusion through sports, “and these types of actions are what do us good as a community, they make us grow. From our position in the State, we are here to be facilitators but not protagonists; here, the protagonists are those who work from different sectors so that Concordia grows and develops.”
In the same vein were the words of Dell´Olio, who stated that sports are a public policy in the current administration, hence the presence and support of different areas of the Municipality. “I congratulate everyone on the organization and wish you a great tournament.”
For his part, Eduardo Jacobo, from Redes Argentinas Asociación Civil, after recalling how they took the first steps until reaching this tournament, pointed out that one of the short-term objectives is to be able to advance with the construction of the first 3x3 basketball court in Concordia, a project that will allow for further fostering the discipline in the region.
The tournament will be played under the mixed 3x3 format, with teams in the free category and open to the community, provided that their members are over 18 years of age. The modality establishes that there must be at least one male player and one female player on the court for each team throughout the entire match.
So far, teams from various places such as the Province of Buenos Aires, CABA, Rosario, Concepción del Uruguay, Chajarí, and Ubajay had already registered, which promises varied and high-level participation.
Activities begin at 11 in the morning at the court in the Green Zone of the Costanera.
National Deputy Nancy Ballejos; the Undersecretary of Tourism Laureano Schvartzman; the head of the Ente Costanera María Perini; Councilwoman Silvina Ovelar and members of the Undersecretariat of Sports were present.
