At the start of the week, the Mathieu Bastareaud sports area was inaugurated in Gallargues-le-Montueux. Many new infrastructures are now available to residents. As for the French international rugby player, he is expected soon on site to meet the children of the town.

Among the works, the creation of a new club house, changing rooms, a street workout space as well as the expansion of the skate park were the object of significant investments by the municipality. The municipal swimming pool has been renovated.

On site, a municipal swimming school has been launched. This aims to promote learning to swim and to know how to save for children. Indeed, drowning is one of the main causes of mortality for children under 12 and is a major issue for elected municipal officials.

On the occasion of this inauguration day, the children were able to learn scuba diving for free with the volunteers of the Gard underwater firefighters club. The village associations have for their part animated many sports workshops offering a discovery of target shooting, judo, table tennis, fishing, rugby and dance. At the same time, a graffiti artist made a fresco for the skate park.
