Government Support for Athletes


The Government of Baja California Sur, through the Sudcalifornian Sports Institute (INSUDE), has announced a substantial investment of 2 million 988 thousand 426 pesos aimed at enhancing the disciplines of cycling and shooting sports. This funding is specifically allocated for the acquisition of specialized equipment for local athletes, reflecting the government's commitment to supporting sports development in the region.


The breakdown of the funding reveals that a significant portion, 2 million 554 thousand 702 pesos, has been directed towards cycling. This investment includes the purchase of four track bicycles, specifically designed for competitive use. Among these are two pursuit bicycles with handlebar sizes of 52 and one with a size of 54, along with a time trial bicycle also sized 54. Additionally, the acquisition includes four front wheels, five blades, and four rear covers, all essential for enhancing the performance of local cyclists.


Advancements in Shooting Sports


In the realm of shooting sports, the investment has also made a notable impact. A state-of-the-art air rifle, valued at 185 thousand 600 pesos, has been introduced to the training arsenal, received by coach Sandra Paulina Sánchez Hernández. This addition complements previous investments, including an electronic target machine and software, which together totaled 248 thousand 124 pesos. Thus, the total investment in shooting sports has reached an impressive 433 thousand 724 pesos, showcasing a robust commitment to improving the training conditions for athletes in this discipline.


"We recognize the effort and dedication of Sudcalifornian athletes, as well as the results they have achieved in national competitions, which reflect the growth and competitive level of these sports in Baja California Sur,"

said Noé Fiol Verduzco, the general director of INSUDE. His acknowledgment highlights the importance of these investments in fostering talent and encouraging athletes to strive for excellence.


Encouraging Future Success


The director also emphasized the necessity for athletes to utilize the resources provided effectively. He encouraged them to continue their preparations diligently to achieve better results in upcoming competitions. This call to action serves as a reminder of the responsibility that comes with such significant support.


"I urge all athletes to make the most of the resources provided and to keep training hard to reach new heights in their performance,"

he added. This sentiment resonates with the broader goal of not only enhancing individual athlete capabilities but also elevating the overall standard of sports in Baja California Sur.


As the region continues to invest in its athletes, the hope is that these efforts will translate into greater success on national and international stages. The commitment to cycling and shooting sports is a clear indication of the government’s vision for a thriving sports culture in Baja California Sur, one that nurtures talent and fosters competitive spirit among its youth.


The allocation of nearly 3 million pesos is not just a financial investment; it represents a strategic move towards building a stronger foundation for sports in the region, ensuring that athletes have access to the best possible equipment and training resources. As these athletes gear up for their next challenges, the support from INSUDE will undoubtedly play a crucial role in their journey towards success.
