The San Blas-Canillejas district in Madrid will have the new Las Rosas-Fernando Carro Sports Center after the summer, a 6,700 square meter facility with capacity for a thousand spectators.

The deputy mayor of Madrid, Inma Sanz, visited this Monday the new Las Rosas-Fernando Carro Sports Center, located in San Blas-Canillejas. The sports facility, which will open its doors after the summer, will have the capacity to host a thousand spectators.
The sports complex covers an area of 6,700 square meters and will allow the practice of sports such as basketball, futsal, volleyball, and handball. Additionally, other disciplines can be developed in its adjacent rooms. The construction of this new infrastructure has required a total investment of 13.7 million euros.
Sanz highlighted the importance of this initiative, calling it one of the main sports projects of the current term. She emphasized that this new facility will solidify San Blas-Canillejas as a benchmark district for sports practice in the capital.
The completion of the sports center's interior equipment is scheduled for the coming weeks, with the aim of it becoming operational in September. The primary funding for the facility comes from the territorial rebalancing program Sures.
The Madrid City Council has reported that, during this term, thirteen new sports facilities have been built, five are currently under construction, and an investment of approximately 200 million euros has been allocated for the creation of new centers and the renovation of existing ones.
