• The players of the Men's First Team participated in a wheelchair basketball activity alongside children and young people from CRIT Durango.
• The visit took place as part of the 20th anniversary of Winning by Serving, as part of the Warriors of the Heart initiatives.
As part of the initiatives of their social responsibility program Warriors of the Heart and the philosophy of Winning by Serving, the First Team of Santos Laguna visited the Teletón Children's Rehabilitation Center (CRIT) Durango this Thursday, located in Gómez Palacio.
After finishing their training at Territorio Santos Modelo, the Warriors traveled to the CRIT facilities.
During the visit, the team members interacted with children and young people from CRIT. They then experienced one of the most special moments of the day: a basketball game between the Warriors and the basketball team representing the Center.
Through this activity, the players got to know firsthand the daily lives of the CRIT members. They also gained awareness of everything involved in their rehabilitation process and the efforts of the families and staff who support them.
At the end of the activity, children, young people, and their families shared very special moments with the entire team through photographs, autograph signings, and social interaction.
All teams present at CRIT
It is worth noting that, throughout this tournament, all teams of Club Santos Laguna, both men's and women's, have visited CRIT Durango and have gained a deep understanding of the work carried out at this center.
Without a doubt, this experience represents a very special motivation for the work the team is doing ahead of the match against León next week. In that game at Estadio Corona, the Warriors will aim to secure their qualification.
With these actions, Club Santos Laguna reaffirms its commitment to taking the culture of Winning by Serving beyond the field, creating value in the community, and transforming realities in the Comarca Lagunera.
Regarding this activity, forward Eduardo “El Mudo” Aguirre mentioned:
“It’s always very nice to participate in these kinds of activities. We really enjoy coming, spending time with them, and giving back a little of all the support they give us. Also, enjoying these moments helps us bond more as a team. Throughout my sports career with Orlegi, I’ve always had the chance to participate in activities like this, and it’s very important to continue being part of them.”
Meanwhile, forward Esteban Lozano added:
“We are very happy. In the end, there are many people who love and support us, so coming and sharing moments like this with them also fills us with energy and joy. These kinds of activities should always have a place in our schedule because they are people who support us, and we all want the best for each other. For us, making them smile is also very important.”
