The Penya Gent Barcelonista de Bogotá (Federación Mundo) recently organised an intense day of activities for its supporters at the Parque Ciudad Montes, located in the southern part of the Colombian capital. The supporters’ club got underway early in the morning with the presentation of its brand new women’s football team. The players first received their official jerseys, and then conducted a training session on one of the futsal pitches in the park. All of this, with the pride and excitement of being able to wear the colours of their beloved team and at the same time represent their penya.
At the same time, the PB Gent Barcelonista de Bogotá brought together young and old supporters in another part of the city to start a bike ride that ended in the same Ciudad Montes Park. There, the participants received a talk on biodiversity and the importance of caring for the environment, as they had just put into practice with this means of sustainable mobility. For these two activities, the PB Gent Barcelonista de Bogotá had the collaboration of Diplomado Ambiental en Bici, an association that promotes the use of bicycles and climate action. The day ended with several recreational activities for all participants.
