Laser-Run City Tour: Development drive in Cordoba (ARG)

Argentina will be one of the key venues on the UIPM calendar in 2018 when it hosts the Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires.

Now the country can declare that it has held its first Laser-Run City Tour, after an excellent instalment of the format in the city of Cordoba.

The event was staged at Mario Kempes Stadium by the Cordobesa Association of Modern Pentathlon, who are aiming to involve new generations in the UIPM movement, and attracted athletes from all over the state.

The Modern Pentathlon Federation of Argentina has embraced the new sport of Laser-Run and plans to hold two more events in the City of Magdalena and Santiago del Estero.

There was also a clinic for club coaches interested in developing the popular sport.

Alejandro Silva, President of the Cordobesa Association of Modern Pentathlon, also gave participants the opportunity to try Swimming to give them a taste of Modern Pentathlon, and received very positive feedback.
