Xàbia calls for subsidies for local athletes in 2023, the total amount to be distributed amounts to 12.000 euros. Toni Molina, at the head of the Sports Department of the Javea Town Hall, explained that the objective of this aid is "to collaborate with the expenses that families have for the preparation and sports training of young Xabieros."
Who are they addressed to?
To qualify for these scholarships, athletes must meet the following requirements:

- Be registered in Xàbia for at least two years or belong to a local sports entity for at least two years
- Practice a sport at performance levels aimed at achieving provincial, regional, national and international titles, and have the status of federated athlete or "Jocs Esportius de CV" athlete in said sport, be linked to a sports entity (non-professional sport ) active, and have obtained, as the best sporting result, one of the positions that appear in the evaluation criteria.
How to order them
Applications can only be submitted via telematics or Office of Citizen for fifteen business days starting the day after the publication in the Official Gazette of the Province of the extract of the bases, which was Thursday, November 16.
The models and bases are found posted in the Sports section of the municipal website.
Councilor Toni Molina has urged all Xàbia athletes or those who practice sports with the flag of a Xàbia club to request these aids launched by the Sports Department for expenses incurred between January 1 and December 31, 2022.
Furthermore, he recalled that anyone who has doubts in this regard can go to the Miguel Buigues Pavilion Andrés where the department staff will try to solve them and help them in the processing.
Expenses to be covered by subsidies
Among the expenses that can be contributed for this line of aid are:
- Sports club fees
- Federal licenses
- Civil liability insurance or accident insurance linked to sports activity
- Accommodation or travel expenses related to a sports comxicotetion
- Payments made to coaches, physiotherapists or qualified doctors who improve the athlete's performance
All these payments must have been made with the corresponding invoice and in the name of the athlete.
More money is spent on the cash boxes of municipal workers than on future 'xabieros' sportsmen. Dotze thousand euros is a bit of shame, right? charge more for a couple of meetings in Amjasa
Absolutely right, the city council should be ashamed of doing that knowing that we have very worn-out sports infrastructures, all separated from each other and they are not in a central location in the municipality so that it is equally accessible to the three urban centers, in addition to that We have many athletes who, since they were little, go to other municipalities to play sports because there is no offer here or if there is the price is very high, if they want a Christmas basket they can earn it, it should be illegal to give gifts with public money.
