LIMA 2019 PAN AMERICAN GAMES COMPETITIONS TO BEGIN IN 30 DAYS

Everything is almost ready to welcome, in a few days, the best athletes of the Americas to the largest multi-sports event in the continent, to be held for the first time in Peru. On July, we will become the sports capital of the Americas and we will be on the spotlight during the Lima 2019 Pan American and Parapan American Games.

We are only 30 days away from the start of sports competitions that will mark a major milestone for our country due to the relevance of this event as it is considered second in importance in the world after the Olympic Games.

On July 24, two days prior to the Pan American Games Opening Ceremony at the National Stadium, the official competitions will begin. The first one will be beach volleyball, which will be held in a new conditioned facility in Costa Verde, in the district of San Miguel.

There, the first women's competition will take place at 9:00 between Canada and Nicaragua and it will officially set off the Pan American Games in Peru. At the same time, Argentina will play against Guatemala in court 2. Immediately after, United States will face Trinidad and Tobago, and Colombia will compete against Costa Rica also in women's.

As for the men's competitions, they will start at 10:40 with Canada vs. Nicaragua and Chile vs, Mexico. Then, Brazil will play against Costa Rica and Cuba will face Uruguay.

After midday, competitions will resume with women's at 12:20 between Brazil and Virgin Islands, and Mexico vs. Chile. The Peruvian team will make its debut against El Salvador at 13:10. Cuba and Paraguay will play at the same time.

Then, it will be the turn of the men's category at 14:00 between United States and El Salvador, and Argentina vs. Trinidad and Tobago. At 14:50, the Peruvian men's team will face Dominican Republic and Guatemala will face Venezuela, which will bring the day to a close. These events will bring the beach volleyball opening day to a close.

Women's handball competitions will also start on July 24 and they will be held at VIDENA Sports Center 1, which has been conditioned and was built in advance for the Lima 2019 Games.

There, the opening day will start at 13:00 with the preliminary round. The first competition will be between Puerto Rico and Canada. The Peruvian team will make its debut against Dominican Republic at 15:30.
