We invest in infrastructure that offers safety, quality and functionality, creating the conditions for our children to play sports in modern and suitable facilities.<\/p>\n<p>We are upgrading a facility that is used daily by dozens of young athletes, academies and citizens of the region. Through the interventions we are implementing, we are ensuring that the stadium meets high international standards, offering safety and quality in its use. Of particular importance is also the fact that we invest in modern technical solutions, such as the drainage system and the certified synthetic turf, which ensure the long-term sustainability of the project and reduce the need for maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>We work closely with the Municipality of Kropias, as well as with all the Municipalities of Attica, in order to deliver projects of substance, with transparency and efficiency.
