Loreto Sports: IPD Academy Benefits 350+ Youth

Canoeing, soccer, volleyball and judo are the disciplines that focus the interest of more than 350 children and adolescents from the Loreto region, who are part of the IPD Academy, a free program of the Peruvian Sports Institute aimed at the promotion and development of sports at the national level.

Since January 15, the start date of the IPD Academy in the region, participants have enjoyed sports sessions in appropriate spaces. The football and judo disciplines take place at the Max Augustín Stadium, while volleyball classes take place at the Juan Pinasco Villanueva Closed Coliseum.

Likewise, taking advantage of the geographical conditions of the region, canoeing is taught at the Casa y Pesca Club, located in the Punchana district, allowing optimal practice in accordance with the discipline.

For students to practice their respective disciplines in optimal conditions, since the beginning of the year the IPD delivered specialized sports equipment to all regions of the country, including Loreto.
