The eighth edition of the European Sports Week is being held from September 23 to 30, and the Soto del Real City Council has decided to join the event for another year, organizing a series of activities, in collaboration with local clubs, to encourage the practice of sports in the family. Last year more than 300 people participated.

One of the most outstanding proposals is the “race of the slow”, a cycling activity where the winner will be the person who later reaches the finish line. It will take place during the seventh day of Family Sports, which from 10:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. will take place in the sports center, the archery field, the Amancio Amaro field, the climbing wall and the paddle tennis courts. There you can practice football, rugby, basketball, paddle tennis, taekwondo, climbing, Nordic walking, rhythmic gymnastics, orienteering, volleyball, judo and archery for free. During the day, the rest of the activities will be used to carry out an aerobics class taught by Javier Hernández and, of course, the “slow race”.

With the participation in the activities you can win prizes, you just have to fill in the form that the organization will distribute with the stamps of each sport. For every five stamps you can redeem your prize at the checkpoint.

But the Soto del Real Sports Week begins on September 23 with the opening of the Casa de la Juventud to host foosball and ping-pong tournaments, designed for the public from 12 to 18 years old.

Among the rest of the proposals, you can go from September 24 to 30 to open days in the municipal indoor pool and in the gym, also on Sunday September 25 you can participate in the activity “Family Aquatic Gymnastics ” from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. On September 24, the “Family Blocks” activity will take place at the La Roca del Fenix ​​climbing wall by the Roco-Soto Club.
