“Two key elements are crucial for progress: surpassing the speed of others or choosing the right path to follow.”
René Descartes
Celebrated French philosopher
“Without the goal of making things more difficult, no true progress can be achieved.”
Hermann Keyserling
Notable German philosopher

The Minister of Sports, Kelvin Cruz; José Monegro, President of the Organizing Committee; Carlos Bonilla, Minister of Housing and Buildings (Mived); Luis Mejía Oviedo, Director of Centro Caribe Sports; and Garibaldy Bautista, President of the Dominican Olympic Committee, recently visited the Olympic Stadium Félix Sánchez, which is undergoing renovation in preparation for the XXV Central American and Caribbean Games.

I present to you a press report that details the visit:
“The Minister of Sports and Recreation, Kelvin Cruz, thanked the immense support of President Luis Abinader, thus ensuring the continuity of the works that will be the venue for the XXV Central American and Caribbean Games, scheduled to take place in this capital in 2026.”

Kelvin Cruz speaks to the press, with Luis Mejía by his side.

During the visit to the Olympic Stadium Félix Sánchez, accompanied by José Monegro, Carlos Bonilla, Luis Mejía Oviedo, and Garibaldy Bautista, Cruz commented on the progress of the works on the site.

“It is a matter of pride to see that the work is advancing at a good pace, even better than expected”, Cruz stated while supervising the progress alongside the others. “We have received a very detailed and complete technical report, and our effort is to maintain this pace, counting on the support of President Abinader to achieve it”, he added.

He indicated that they are “on time, even with a margin for unforeseen events, which is thanks to the support of President Abinader so that the works do not stop”, he emphasized.

The tour revealed that 85% of the seats are already installed, with a total of 24,500 seats, as well as a giant screen, the installation of grass and LED lights, which exceed the lighting expectations of Centro Caribe Sports.

José Monegro, President of the Organizing Committee of the 2026 Games, wanted to show the progress and details of the works to Centro Caribe Sports.

Carlos Bonilla, Minister of Housing, noted that in the next few weeks, the work on the bleachers will be completed; most of the lights have been installed, and only a few seats in the VIP area are missing, as the stadium will be one of the venues for the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, which begins on October 16.

Until tomorrow, if God
