World1 source1 country🔦 Under-reported7m ago
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced that all 407 Mexican athletes who won medals at the XXV Central American and Caribbean Games (JCC) Santo Domingo 2026 will receive financial awards. The announcement, made during a press conference on Wednesday, August 12, also included promises of increased government investment and scholarships for athletes.
In implementing this initiative, the federal administration bypassed the established Operating Rules of the Physical Culture and Sport Program for the current fiscal year in order to allocate additional resources directly to the medalists.
