Pandemic forces to suspend Games of La Araucana 2021

The organization of the event is studying the possibility of the competition taking place next year, keeping the headquarters in the Los Lagos region.

The 29th version of the Binational Games of La Araucanía that would be played in the Los Lagos region was suspended, due to the health situation that exists both in Argentina and in our country, according to the organizers of the event.

In a virtual meeting held between authorities from both countries, details were given about this decision, which was supported by the Minister of Sports of the Argentine province of Neuquén, Luis Sánchez, who is part of the presidency of the event and pointed out that “the costs they are more expensive and do not guarantee that everything will be carried out normally, so the best option was to postpone them until next year. Today the borders are closed and it is impossible to reach Chile by land. “

It should be noted that from our country no national or regional authority has officially confirmed the decision that has already been widely reported in the Argentine media.

However, in the neighboring country the version that the possibility that the competition is postponed to next year is being analyzed, keeping the headquarters in the Los Lagos region.

This means a hard blow for the delegations of Aysenino athletes that were preparing to participate in the 2021 Games of La Araucanía in the specialties of soccer, basketball, volleyball, cycling, swimming, judo and athletics, both in women and in men.
