Gijón candidacy to European City of Sport 2016 Gijón candidacy to European City of Sport 2016

- 1 - Gijón and sport go hand in hand

When thinking of an image of Gijón it is very likely that sport will come to mind. Our city is open to the sea, looks up to the sky and is a close to the mountains. We are a reference along the Cantabrian coast in terms of sports facilities which host activities, tournaments and championships that each year attract thousands of vi- sitors.

With this philosophy, Gijón has found a place on the national and international sporting map thanks to events like the Davis Cup semi-final between Spain and USA in 2012, the 2011 Duathlon World Championship, the 2011 European Baseball Championship, the 2008 World Skating Championship, the five star CSIO Interna- tional Horse Show, the 2014 World Climbing Championship, and the 2015 Eurobas- ket warm-up match between Spain and Belgium that will take place this August.

The relationship between Gijón and sport is a constant throughout the year and is lived passionately by the people of the city, both men and women.

In addition, the city has idyllic surroundings in which sportspeople, family and friends can enjoy enriching experiences in superb settings.

Reasons abound for the people of Gijón to be proud of our city and to encourage our visitors to take with them the best memories of our town.

It would be an honour for the Principality of , and especially for Gijón, to enjoy a designation of this importance, because our city is committed to sport as a fundamental pillar in the development of people and the development of values. Our city encourages young people to become involved in sport because we believe sport is a driver of the progress of society.

Because Gijón and sport go hand in hand, we propose to create a spirit of colla- boration based on a common, exciting project.

Carmen Moriyón Entrialgo Mayoress, Gijón

- 2 - - 3 - Gijón deserves to be a European City of Sport. Our city has twice received the pri- ze of the national Sports Council, reflecting the fact that Gijón’s involvement with sport is unrivalled. This can be seen in its network of over one hundred facilities which, along with programmes and activities, make our city a regional and national reference.

The public infrastructure of the city alone includes, among other facilities, sports halls in different neighbourhoods, two golf courses, a sports palace, heated swim- ming pools, soccer grounds, a climbing wall, hockey, baseball and rugby grounds and countless multi-sport courts in different neighbourhoods, without forgetting our local traditional sports and the covered sports courts in schools. This sport in- frastructure is complemented by the «homes of sport”, where territorial federa- tions have their headquarters as well as some of the city’s clubs and private sports clubs that are a reference in the city for both their equipment and the number of members they have.

With all this Gijón becomes a unique setting for the development of a premier sporting event, due to the experience accrued in organizing sports as well as the existing hotel and sports infrastructure, as witnessed by the holding of events such as the Davis Cup, the World Climbing Championships or the Eurobasket 2015 warm- up game next August 11. All these events carry a great social and economic impact on the environment of the city and elsewhere in the region.

Sport plays a role of social integration, education and contribution to public health as well as support for values related to mutual respect, tolerance, fair play and non-discrimination. For these reasons, the City Council Sports Department works to foster sport promotion policies in order to facilitate physical activity, sport and leisure as citizens’ rights.
