MC Cartagena is aware of the needs in sport in the municipality.
Therefore, the Cartagena Government Program, prepared with the contributions of numerous groups and entities, will continue the project that José López and Ricardo Segado started in June 2015 and that was interrupted by the intrusion and paralysis of Castejón.
In this sense, the councilman and responsible for Sports MC, Ricardo Segado, stressed that "it is the project that needs Cartagena.After our passage through this Department we have experience and knowledge of what to do and in part , we started in just over two years. "
Among the numerous measures, the improvement of the service to the users stands out, through an update of the sports offered by the City Council, depending on the current demand, as well as through the urgent and constant attention to sports infrastructures.
Modernization of the Cartagonova, artificial turf, Palace of Sports and athletics track
In addition to close attention to clubs and users, the MC Government Program initiatives will also reach important projects such as the Cartagonova stadium, the artificial turf plan and the Sports Palace.
Thus, Segado has detailed that "we will implement an investment plan to modernize the Cartagonova municipal stadium, since it is a thirty-year facility that requires an effort of maintenance, repair and investment, which we will use to enable a dedicated space to the Federation of Peñas of FC Cartagena ".
As for the artificial turf, the person in charge of Sports of MC has emphasized that "we will finish the installation in all the fields of the municipality." We carried out five works: in the Seiscientas, José María Lapuerta, La Aljorra, The Albujón and La Palma. momentum that has been delayed by the Caostejón effect. "
On the other hand, one of the priority objectives for MC is the complete opening of the Palacio de los Deportes, with its swimming pool, auxiliary rooms and the transfer of municipal services.
Also, Ricardo Segado has pointed out, "we will work to remodel the athletics track, a very necessary effort that the City Council and the other administrations involved have to carry out."
Promotion of alternative and native sports
In the same way, as it has already done during its participation in the Government, MC will work to promote and support alternative sports such as volleyball, which still does not have fixed facilities on the beach, "something essential in a coastal town like Cartagena".
Another of the measures aimed at supporting the groups is the decisive support for local sports, such as the Cartagena bowling, making it known among our young people, making exhibitions and supporting official competitions.
"We will also provide the necessary spaces so that the most outstanding clubs and associations in the city can have a seat and a space, and we will also create new sports schools that are not currently recognized, such as fishing or water polo, thus expanding the offer to our users. "
In short, concluded Ricardo Segado, "these measures will be reflected in an improvement plan in the Department of Sports, perfecting internal procedures and reorganizing the service, seeking to optimize material and human resources. All this will result in the success of our athletes, who also need the support of CARM, which is currently the community that spends less money promoting sports. "
