Jaume Ferrer and Fanny Tur, chairman of the Formentera Council and the Balearic Islands' minister of culture, participation and sport, respectively, sat down today to sign into action a deal to promote fitness in 2018. The Fundació—or “foundation”—for fitness in the Balearics, part of the regional ministry, is unlocking €100,000 to benefit high-performance sport, women in sport and Formentera's image as a sport stronghold.
To that end the Council commits to:
- Supporting high-level athletes who have given standout performances nationally (medal winners in championships in Spain) and internationally (participants in European, international and Olympic meets).
- Collaborating in sporting events such as competitions, seminars and/or training courses that foster Formentera's image as a centre for sport.
- Acquiring specialised sporting material for high-level sport programmes organised by the Council.
- Providing the Fundació with proof of payment for related acquisitions, as well as a brief report of activities prior to December 31, 2018.
To ensure proper follow-up, a committee will evaluate execution of the initiative, explore issues relating to how it is interpreted and reconcile any disparities. The committee will be made up of a representative of the Council and of the Fundació.
