A weekend filled with para sports will be lived from Friday 9th until Sunday 11th in Santiago, with the national championships of three disciplines that will be present at the Parapan American Games: wheelchair rugby, CP football (cerebral palsy) and para athletics.
The action will start this friday with the National Closing Tournament of the Paralympic Rugby Federation with the participation of the clubs Cónderes, Búfalos, Guerreros, Huracanes and Wallmapu that will face each other to define a champion and the third place for the playoffs happening on Sunday. All of the matches will take place at the Gimnasio municipal de Cerrillos.
On the weekend, the national competition for CP football (cerebral palsy) will take place, with 7 players on each side, in the synthetic courts of the Ciudad Deportiva Universidad San Sebastián, in Las Condes. There the clubs Teletón Santiago, Universidad Viña del Mar FT7 PC, Instituto de Rehabilitación Pedro Aguirre Cerda and Alianza del Maule will gather, under a everyone against everyone system.
While, para athletics will fill on Saturday and Sunday the track and field of the Colegio San Ignacio El Bosque, in Providencia. Sprints, throwings and jumps of all categories for every competitor and the sub-14 to sub-19, will inspire the spectators, who will be able to see the more recognized para athletes of the season.
All of the competitions will work as practice for the international and national training sessions that are being held these days by the international federations of each sport, including the sport classification process , that determines the level of impact of the impairment that each athlete has and their respective sport class. These training sessions are possible thanks to the joint work of the areas of Panapan American Sport Integration and Sports, and their “Road to Santiago” program of the corporation Santiago 2023 and the Chilean Paralympic Committee.
