Through the implementation of various programs, events, and works of social impact, the institution benefited thousands of students throughout the country.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Boosting School Sports<\/h2>\n\n\nDuring the year, INEFI actively promoted school marches, an initiative focused on promoting physical activity, discipline, and civic values at the primary level. This initiative integrated educational centers from various regions of the country. Additionally, sports, recreational, and training activities were implemented, strengthening the use of school time and contributing to the integral development of the student body.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">National School Sports Games San Francisco 2025<\/h2>\n\n\nAn important milestone was the celebration of the San Francisco 2025 National School Sports Games. In parallel, an extensive program of sports works and infrastructure was carried out, which included the remodeling and repair of the San Francisco de Macor\u00eds athletics track, the renovation of sports centers in Salcedo, Villa Tapia and Castillo, as well as the La Vega softball stadium and the repair of sports clubs in the region.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">INEFI with the Neighborhood<\/h2>\n\n\nThe &#8220;INEFI with the Neighborhood&#8221; program brought sports, recreation, and guidance to vulnerable sectors, directly impacting children, youth, and families. This year, the program expanded to areas in need in Santo Domingo, such as Las Ca\u00f1itas and Los Praditos, and also to communities in the interior of the country, such as Las Matas de Santa Cruz in Montecristi and in San Crist\u00f3bal. A total of 13 days of this project were carried out during the year.\n\n<h2>Festivals and Support for the Extended Sports Program<\/h2>\n\nINEFI promoted the celebration of two school marching festivals, integrating educational centers from different regions of the country. The first one was held in Santiago, with the participation of 594 secondary school students, and in December the primary school festival was held, with 493 students. In addition, support for the extended sports session continued, implementing the first stage of the project at the Uni\u00f3n Panamericana High School in the National District, where specialized monitors offered basketball, chess and table tennis classes.\n\n<h2>Renovations and Utensil Delivery<\/h2>\n\nThe delivery of sports equipment and the repair of courts reached historic figures, with hundreds of interventions carried out in educational centers nationwide. More than 23,278 units of sports equipment were delivered, including balls from various disciplines, uniforms, nets, cones and teaching materials, benefiting hundreds of educational centers and community spaces. Likewise, 218 sports facilities were renovated in 193 schools or community sports centers.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional Events and Programs<\/h2>\n\n\nThe institutional calendar included numerous school and recreational sporting events, as well as the strengthening of strategic disciplines through programs such as school golf and swimming. Additionally, the &#8220;Recreating with INEFI&#8221; program impacted more than 19,230 students, promoting healthy coexistence, teamwork, and the discovery of sporting talents.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>This year we reaffirm that school sports are a key tool for the formation of better citizens. Each program, each repaired court, and each event held aims to offer real opportunities to our students and strengthen the educational system through physical education.<\/p><cite>Alberto Rodr\u00edguez, Executive Director of INEFI<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nINEFI also carried out the school golf program, the school swimming program at the Olympic Hostel, the national school baseball and athletics tournaments, and the school bowling tournament, among other events.\n\nWith these actions, INEFI reaffirms its commitment to continue promoting inclusive, modern, and quality physical education, consolidating school sports as a fundamental pillar of the integral development of Dominican children and youth.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The National Institute of Physical Education (INEFI) closed the year 2025 with significant advances in the field of school sports and physical education in the Dominican Republic.
