The tournament brought together talented athletes from across the country and allowed them to showcase their progress and commitment.

The team's coach, Brandon Esteven Álvarez Gómez, reported that the club competed with 35 athletes aged 13 to 18, in both male and female categories. During the competition on November 15th, the under-15 categories achieved outstanding results.
