Athletics is made up of values that encapsulate an awareness of the future, understood as a common social duty, that of sustainable development in the harmonization of economic growth, social inclusion and environmental protection. Because we believe that the lives of all of us depend on these values.
Our slogan, “Your Sport for Life,” is an exhortation to that charged, urgent, challenging and social duty. The term athletics comes from the Greek word athlos, which means fight and combat.
Inherent in the athlete is a sense of the struggle for life. For progress, sustainability, well-being.
