Santa Fe unveils post-South American Games sporting calendar | OneFootball

Following the conclusion of the 13th South American Games held in Santa Fe, Rosario, and Rafaela, the province will host various sporting events in the facilities used during the continental competition. As confirmed at a press conference by provincial spokesperson Virginia Coudannes, some competitions are already underway while others will take place over the coming weeks.

“The Games are over, but the work continues, and that South American flame remains as an invincible fire in the province of Santa Fe,” the official emphasized while reviewing the schedule of activities planned across the province.

In that context, the spokesperson announced that on October 10, the Provincial Aquatic Center in Rosario will host the Santa Fe Swimming Cup. At the same time, the provincial capital has already welcomed more than 3,000 young people from the 19 departments to its athletics track as part of “Santa Fe in Motion”, a qualifying event for the National Games that uses the infrastructure of the South American Village.

Regarding this residential complex, the spokesperson noted that the South American Village will host 2,000 students from the 30 UTN faculties and 150 organizers from October 6 to 11 as part of the UTN Sports Games, a tournament that will be held in the province for the first time in history.

Meanwhile, the Invencible Santa Fe arena will host the Evolution League South Zone futsal tournament from October 14 to 18, featuring the senior and U20 national teams of Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Bolivia, and Paraguay. Also, on October 30 and 31 and November 1, the Santa Fe Cup in the discipline will be played with eight teams, including the confirmed participants Jockey and Regatas from Rosario, Atlético Sastre, Atlético Timbuense and Belgrano from Arequito, while awaiting the two spots from the Santa Fe League and the playoff between Unión Casildense and Juventud Unida from Cañada Rosquín. Meanwhile, the High Performance Sports Center will host the 12th South American U23 Athletics Championship from October 16 to 18 on its new track.

In addition, the city of Rafaela will host the Cycling Camp at the Invencible Velodrome from October 10 to 12, a venue that will host a concert by the band La K’onga at the end of the month and, from November 4 to 14, the Argentine Track Cycling Championship.

Lastly, Coudannes highlighted the launch of the air route between Rosario and Madrid as a milestone in international projection: “Santa Fe took off under Pullaro’s administration as a hub for events, investment, and international outreach, which is why it gained international connectivity with the Rosario-Madrid flight.”

Along those lines, the official reviewed the focus of the provincial infrastructure and logistics policy: “We come from a province that did not invest in connectivity, that did not work to ensure our products reached foreign markets, that had no planning in terms of infrastructure and logistics. This is a very important service, one that responds to this policy aimed at restoring and expanding the connectivity map for the province of Santa Fe.”
