The strengths at the cycling level are worked on in the different roads of the department, which also allows athletes to enjoy different landscapes.
At the swimming level, the tests are carried out in the pools of the Recreation Park.
The selection has the participation of 7 young people, who are waiting for 2 competitive events to be held in Valle del Cauca, but due to the pandemic there is still no set date.
