This initiative represents a milestone in the organization and development of student sports at the national level.\nThe project was inaugurated with the delivery of the comprehensive remodeling of the Rafael Barias Club, located in Villa Consuelo. This infrastructure, which borders the Rep\u00fablica de Cuba Basic School, will now function as part of the National Project of School Sports Clubs promoted by INEFI, under the model of open and active schools for the community.\nThe remodeling included the installation of a new multipurpose court for basketball, volleyball, and indoor soccer, as well as the adaptation of three specialized rooms. These rooms are designed for key disciplines of school sports, such as karate, judo, and taekwondo; table tennis; and chess.\nDuring the event, the executive director of INEFI, Alberto Rodr\u00edguez, highlighted the strategic importance of this initiative. The objective is to integrate sports in a real and structured way into the Dominican educational system.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>\u201cWith this first school club, we are taking a historic step by uniting the school with a functional sports facility, organized and directed by professionals, so that sport is part of the day-to-day life of our students, beyond the physical education class,\u201d Rodr\u00edguez expressed.<\/p>\n\n<cite>Alberto Rodr\u00edguez, Executive Director of INEFI<\/cite>\n<\/blockquote>\n\nThe center will feature the participation of renowned figures from the national sport, who will be in charge of the different disciplines.
