The Cabildo de La Gomera is organizing the third edition of the Sports Gala this Thursday, July 9th, an event that will honor ten prominent figures and groups from the island's sports sector.

The ceremony will take place at the Island Auditorium starting at 7:00 PM. The event aims to highlight the achievements, dedication, and results of athletes, clubs, and associations during the period between January 2025 and June 2026.
The awards include four main categories—best male athlete, best female athlete, best collective, and sports reference—along with six honorary mentions, one for each municipality on the island. The selection process was based on criteria of transparency, equality, and sporting merit.

"Not being selected does not diminish the value of the effort, dedication, and merits of those who were proposed. Each candidacy reflects a story of commitment to sport and demonstrates the strength of La Gomera's sports fabric."
