Vélez-Málaga presents the 2026 White Week Camp from February 23 to 27

The Vélez-Málaga City Council is once again offering the community a new edition of the White Week Camps 2026, which will take place from February 23 to 27 at the facilities of the Fernando Hierros Municipal Sports Center and the Francisco Aguilar Pavilion, providing, according to the Council, an educational and sporting alternative for the "youngest" members of the municipality during the non-school period.

This activity is aimed at children aged six to 12 years, with the main goal of facilitating family conciliation during the White Week, while promoting sports practice, coexistence, inclusion, and the acquisition of healthy lifestyle habits.

The camp will run from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, the usual school hours, and will include a morning classroom from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM, according to the council, at no additional cost. However, Councilor for Sports, Manuel Gutiérrez, has detailed that to attend the morning classroom, it must be previously indicated on the camp registration form.

Activities that minors will perform at the camp

Gutierrez has explained what this new edition of the camp will consist of. The program includes introductory techniques in various sports disciplines such as football, handball, basketball, paddle tennis, tennis, or volleyball. Along the same lines, inclusive sports are also part of this camp, as well as traditional games, animation, or group dynamics adapted to the ages of the children who wish to attend.

The registration period will start on February 3 and end on February 13. For the proper development of the activities, the Sports Councilor has pointed out, especially for the children's guardians, that each child should come daily with sports clothes and shoes, breakfast, water, and a second set of clothes, this as a precautionary measure.

"This camp is a fundamental tool to support families during non-school periods, offering the youngest an educational, safe, and quality alternative, based on sports, coexistence, and the values of our municipality," detailed the councilor, highlighting the camp's new features.

Furthermore, Gutiérrez has emphasized that "from the Sports Council we continue to bet on accessible and inclusive activities that contribute to the integral development of the boys and girls of our municipality, while promoting an active and healthy use of free time".
