The municipality of Río Grande has expanded its local sports programming, specifically focusing on the growth of its municipal judo initiative. Mayor Martín Perez met with athletes and families at the Municipal Dojo to reaffirm the city’s commitment to the sport.

The program now includes more than 100 participants, ranging from children aged four to adults. To accommodate this growth, the Agency of Sports, Culture, and Tourism has increased the number of available training locations, adding the Gimnasio de Escuelas Deportivas on Roldán Street and the Gimnasio Comunitario in Chacra IV to the existing Dojo Municipal in Alberdi.
