“"The finals of the games ultimately serve as a space for coexistence, competition, and the promotion of the educational values of sport. In Terres de l'Ebre, there has long been a commitment to this model of integral formation for the region's youth. In Montsià, we have a special tradition in organizing events of this kind where we also aim to promote our environment through the many families who visit us."
