BALANGA CITY — A modern sports complex will soon rise in an upland village here to serve not only athletes but even ordinary men and women who will enjoy a spacious area in their daily exercise routine.
Gov. Albert Garcia on Tuesday said that he has taken up the matter with his brother, Balanga City Mayor Francis Garcia, who he said expressed full support to the project.
The governor and the mayor have discussed the plan with city and provincial school and sports officials who wanted the project implemented soonest.
It will rise on a 15-hectare land in the upland village of Dangcol in this city.
“Ito ay makapagbibigay ng malaking tulong at suporta sa ating mga atleta pati na rin sa mga kababayan nating gustong mag-ehersisyo sa isang malawak na espasyo,” the governor said.
He said that the complex will have quality facilities where big sports events can be held and can be offered for use not only by athletes in Bataan but from neighboring areas as well.
Garcia said there was also a plan to construct an integrated school within the complex to cater to the growing number of students in the city.
