The Councilor for Sports of the City of Lorca, Juan Miguel Bayonas, wanted to respond this morning to the allegations made by Izquierda Unida about the overcrowding of the Felipe VI Sports Complex during the summer.

Juan Miguel Bayonas pointed out that "Lorca has two large sports facilities with heated swimming pools: San Antonio Sports Complex and Felipe VI Sports Complex, which sufficiently supply the sports needs of the population of our municipality throughout the year. San Antonio pool has a large glass of 8 streets and a small glass while the Felipe VI Sports Complex has two large 6-lane glasses and two small teaching glasses that during the year have a large influx of public, but without However during the summer months the demand for this service (heated pool) drops by more than 70% ".

The Sports Councilor added that "so far this month the average attendance in the pool of the Felipe VI Sports Complex has been 2-3 free swim users in a street, which means that as the summer progresses it will be even lower. For this reason, from the Lorca Consistory we take advantage of this summer period to perform the maintenance of these pools to be able to provide the best service of heated swimming pools throughout the Region of Murcia during the rest of the year. The Municipal Consistory loans during the months of July and August the service of summer pools that the population demands, as it is the case of the pool of Zarcilla de Ramos, La Parroquia, and of course, the municipal pools of the Torrecilla, which they are only used for recreational use, but in them numerous sports activities are developed ".

Bayonas has stated that "we also have to remind Mrs. Martín that the prices of the sports facilities of the municipality are regulated by the General Regulation of Public Prices of the City of Lorca, being these within the average in comparison with other municipalities of the Region where there are pools that are more expensive the average user is much higher, concentrating up to 7 swimmers per street.The ordinance also provides bonuses and discounts for sports schools, schools, associations, federated athletes, people with disabilities, large families , young people, pensioners, low income people ..., while to enjoy the summer municipal swimming pools there are also available 5x4 bonuses, 10x7 vouchers and large families, among others ".
