The Communauté de communes - Crestois et de Pays de Saillans Coeur de Drôme organized a meeting with sports associations that use its facilities. The event, held this Wednesday evening, gathered about thirty associations and was attended by Éric Escande, president of the intercommunal community, and Athénaïs Kouidri, vice-president in charge of sports.
This first meeting aimed to establish a constructive dialogue with local sports stakeholders. The intercommunal community views sport as an essential pillar for the territory's health, social cohesion, and conviviality, especially in an era of increasing sedentary lifestyles. Associations and their educators are recognized for their role in transmitting values such as solidarity, respect, and self-improvement.
The creation of a dedicated vice-presidency for sports reflects the intercommunal community's commitment to actively supporting the sporting dynamism of Cœur de Drôme. The discussions addressed concrete issues such as the allocation of usage slots, the condition of facilities, and the needs of practitioners and volunteers.
Over the coming year, this listening approach will continue to define the uses, needs, and necessary improvements for intercommunal sports facilities. The goal is to progressively build the next steps, based on on-the-ground realities and in close collaboration with the associations.
