La Laguna Approves Tender to Secure Future of ‘DeporVida’ Sports Program
San Cristóbal de La Laguna has officially approved the tender for its "La Laguna DeporVida" program, securing the long-term operational and legal stability of municipal sports services across all city districts.
Sports programs in San Cristóbal de La Laguna are now on firmer ground. The city’s Autonomous Sports Organization (OAD) has officially approved the tender to manage "La Laguna DeporVida," the municipality’s flagship sports program. This move formalizes the budget and sets the official rules and technical standards for how these services will be run moving forward.
This project is significant because it reaches every neighborhood across the city’s six districts. By finalizing this agreement, the City Council is ensuring the long-term future of an initiative considered vital for the physical and social health of local residents.
Badel Albelo, president of the OAD, noted that this approval is the result of a complex process designed to provide the legal and operational stability the program previously lacked. Mayor Luis Yeray Gutiérrez added that the decision is part of a wider strategy to guarantee high-quality sports access for everyone, no matter where they live in the municipality. With this step, the City Council aims to prevent any future interruptions to sports activities, ensuring that public funding provides a reliable and accessible service for all residents.
