The facilities of the Ministry of Sports (Miderec) and the Dominican Olympic Committee (COD) served as stops on the torch relay of the Military and Police Sports Games, which are preparing to inaugurate their 53rd version on January 31.
Both stops were led by the president of the Sports Circle, Brigadier General Delio Colón Rosario, of the Army of the Dominican Republic, as well as the Olympic medalist Luisito Pie, who was in charge of carrying the torch on behalf of the athletes.
Engineer Garibaldy Bautista, president of the Dominican Olympic Committee (COD), highlighted the importance of holding another edition of the Military and Police Sports Games and its importance for the development of athletes.
“The Military and Police Sports Games are a complement to the country’s sports,” said Bautista shortly after receiving the torch in front of the COD, last Friday.
The Vice Minister of Sports, Franklin De la Mota, was in charge of receiving the torch on behalf of the head of the portfolio, Francisco Camacho.
Athletes will fight to win the titles of champions in the disciplines of chess, basketball, handball, baseball, boxing, cycling, soccer, golf, judo, karate, weightlifting, table tennis, rifle and pistol shooting, among others.
