A total of four venues for sailing, paragliding, diving and hang gliding at the XX Papua National Sports Week (PON) will begin construction in January 2021. This was conveyed directly by the Acting Head of the Papua Province Sports and Youth Office Alexander Kapisa.
Through the PB PON XX Papua page, Monday, Alexander Kapisa explained, the four venues to be built are temporary in nature and will only be prepared before the implementation of PON Papua in October 2021.
"There are still four temporary PON venues that have not been built, the budget has already been included in the main budget for the 2021 budget year," he said.
Alexander Kapisa said the four venues would be built by the Papua Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR) Office.
"So, some temporary venues are already at the auction process stage, and it is hoped that by early 2021 the work process will begin," he said.
Overall, for the 37 sports, said Alex, the venues that were built either new or renovated by the Papua provincial government and the central government have been 100 percent complete.
At the beginning of 2021 the completed venues can be used for every sport that wants to do a test event for the preparation of PON Papua.
"Early in 2021 Papuan athletes can already test events at these venues," he explained.
Not only for the test event, according to Alex, athletes can also do exercises at the venue to get used to it. Moreover, some venues have international standards, so Papuan athletes need time to adapt to these venues.
"Earlier this year, when our venues were all ready, we opened up space for our athletes to try their venues," he said.
Based on the schedule, PON XX Papua will be held on 2-13 October 2021 in four clusters, namely the Jayapura City cluster, Jayapura Regency, Mimika and Merauke.
