Tenis in Pazo de Quiñones de León

From the beginning of the 20th century between 1905 and 1910, one of the first Galician tennis courts dates back to the beginning of the 20th century between 1905 and 1910. It was built by María de los Dolores Elduayen y Martínez Enríquez, IX Marquise of Valladares and VII Marquise of Mos in the Pazo de Castrelos.

Because the English daughter-in-law of the Marquise Mariana de Whyte was very fond of this game, in which other friends and relatives soon began to take up.

The stands and posts are still preserved on the estate, although due to the danger of falling trees and branches, access to the public is closed on certain days.

Two Galician hackers: Antonio Fernandes from Vigo and Roberto Fernández de Arbo
challenged each other to find security flaws on the NASA website and both found them by reporting them to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

For this they were congratulated in a letter from the Mary W. Jackson headquarters of NASA, based in Washington, and they corrected the errors that could have led to the theft of user credentials to access websites.

Another security error was in access to session cookies through an error page. Both have been corrected.

XXXIII Olimpíada Paris 2024

These 2024 Olympic games held in the city of Luz will be the first Olympic ceremony that will not take place in a stadium where the athletes will parade along the Seine River.

Curiosities about these 2024 Olympic games:

_Brittney Griner

From prison to Olympic games. On December 8, 2022, the WNBA star was released after 10 months in Russian prison, exchanged for Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout participating in these Olympics and freeing himself from a 9-year sentence for drug smuggling.

_Medalla withdrawn by the committee from Jordan Chiles

The Deportivo Arbitration Court ruled this Saturday that the appeal of the coach Lanai, which gave the bronze to his pupil, arrived four seconds later, invalidating it then with which he withdraws the bronze given to Jordan Chiles, bringing this appeal five days earlier.

_The Spanish player Marín

During his career he suffered a cruciate ligament rupture in each wheel and for this reason he had to abandon the games when he returned to break one of them.

_Anthony Ammirati

The pertiga jumper shot the list with his pene when he tried to pass the 5.4 meters which eliminated him from the games. I'm provoking thousands of comments and the viral video of his fall revolutionizing the networks. On the other hand, he was offered 240000 for a porn video.

_Algerian trans boxer Khelif

Women's boxing has sparked a controversy that is expected to force a review of the access of trans sportsmen to women's competitions to access this person to games with muscular and developmental advantage that gives those who access with XX chromosomes, an evolutionary advantage that does not change It's true that in the world I don't want to participate for this reason.

 

 

 

Castrelos will once again vibrate to the sound of the best baritones and tenors!

This Friday, August 9, the open-air stage of the Castrelos auditorium will premiere the opera Rigoletto by Giuseppe Verdi.

In an idyllic setting under the stars and the open sky, just like other cities do in summer, such as Seville at the Alcazar.

A drama of revenge and passion from the hand of the hunchbacked court jester.

Admission is free as in all summer concerts at the auditorium, with most charging a symbolic entrance fee of 10 euros to those who want to be closer to the stands

Este viernes 9 de agosto el escenario al aire libre del auditorio de Castrelos estrenara la opera Rigoletto de Giuseppe Verdi.

    The participants of this urban music, sports and culture festival took place in 2001 when the co-owners of a sports store in the neighborhood of As Travesas Jose Wintern and Carlos Domínguez decided to create a small festival to promote the items from their Skate store. They started performing it on the hill of O Castro, later below the port area, and currently it is mainly celebrated on the Samil beach.
    The location of sporting activities such as Basket 3x3 will be held on the Paseo de las Avenidas del Náutico. As you cross the Casco Vello, you talk about the Urban Descension with departure from the Fortaleza del Castro and the finish line at the Plaza do Berbés. The rest of the sporting activities will take place on the Samil beach as well as the concerts and
    The festival concerts at the Vibra Mahou Theater on Samil's beach will feature 13 musical proposals, including artists such as Rusowsky, LaBlackie, Kyne, Six Sex and Reality, ABHIR.
    In sports, the following modalities stand out:
    Flatland, BMX, Basket 3x3, Breaking, skateboarding, BMT and
    Adaptive Skateboarding.
    As alternative parking spaces on Samil beach, Balaidos, Bouzas, Navia and the Comesaña football field are suggested.
