The Balearic Islands will receive a total of 8,463,726.49 euros of European funds earmarked for projects to modernise technical sports facilities linked to ecological transition and energy efficiency. This was approved today by the Sports Sector Conference, which was attended by the Catalan Minister of Social Affairs and Sports, Fina Santiago, and the Director General of Sports, Carles Gonyalons, and chaired by the Minister of Culture and Sports, Miquel Iceta.

The Department of Social Affairs and Sport will receive 5,529,634.64 euros for this year (2021) and a total of 2,934,091.85 euros for the years 2022 and 2023. The deadline for implementing the projects, which still have to be defined, will be the end of 2025. At least six projects will have to be implemented.

The Balearic Islands is the autonomous community that receives the most funds in this distribution. From the application of objective criteria, this money is a recognition of the outstanding role that technical and high performance sport has in our autonomous community. Thus, the number of centres, the number of regional and national technification programmes and the number of technification sportsmen and women have been taken into account.

The money that will be managed by the Regional Ministry of Social Affairs and Sport will be used to set up and speed up energy efficiency actions related to the facilities that host technification programmes in the Balearic Islands.
