The president of the organizing committee of the 14th National Sports Games Edi Medina said these will be the least costly sports games to ever be held in the country. He said that to reduce the need to build sports installations, the competitions will be held in the province of Hermanas Mirabal (Salcedo) but also in the venues located in Duarte (San Francisco de Macoris) and Espaillat (Moca).
The games are scheduled to take place in March 2018. For the games, the country has been divided into eight sports zones for the organization of the athletic competitions. Some 3,700 athletes will be participating in 33 different sports. Medina expressed his confidence in the success of the games and said that preparation is going at full speed and at an impressive pace.
