Club Pandy FamiJudo Event: Judo Competition at Jorge Garbajosa Pavilion

Last Saturday, January 31, the Jorge Garbajosa Pavilion hosted the “Club Pandy FamiJudo” activity, organized by the Madrid Federation of Judo and Associated Sports. It was the third day of this initiative that seeks to promote judo and was attended by the Councilor for Sports and Tourism, Miriam Gutiérrez. Judokas from different clubs in Torrejón de Ardoz and other cities in the Community of Madrid, born between 2014 and 2023, participated and performed various exercises and games, the youngest ones, accompanied by their parents.

Torrejón de Ardoz, February 2, 2026. It must be remembered that Torrejón de Ardoz has been designated “European City of Sports 2026” by the European Association of Capitals and Cities of Sports (ACES Europe), an organization recognized by the European Commission, and during this year it will host the organization of numerous top-level events and also the promotion of grassroots sports, as has been the case of the “Club Pandy FamiJudo”.

“In addition, we are also going to make important investments that will amount to 20 million euros in the improvement and expansion of its sports infrastructure, guaranteeing that all citizens, from the youngest to our elders, have access to ideal spaces for the practice of various disciplines,” highlighted the mayor, Alejandro Navarro:

• Construction of the Large Sports Hall – 2nd phase Torrejón Soto Henares Sports City, which will have four 40×20 courts, designed for the practice of multiple indoor sports, offering more quality spaces for our athletes.

• Expansion of the Joaquín Blume Sports City with the construction of an 11-a-side soccer field parallel to the federative one, which will include two transversal 7-a-side soccer fields, creation of 6 Pickleball courts, a Rugby Field and a Baseball-Softball Field.

• New Sports City of the Royal Madrid Football Federation, turning our city into the Headquarters of Madrid Football, which will have a futsal pavilion with two courts, a soccer field, two 7-a-side soccer fields, a beach soccer field and a soccer museum.
