During this ceremony, the tennis player Luciana Moyano (16-year-old from Cordoba, from Marcos Juárez) and the 3-for-3 basketball player Nicolás Charaviglio, 18-year-old from Santa Fe from Sunchales, received the Argentine flag.
“In our flag is our identity, our country. We compete, play and strive for our families, our friends, through our streets. All our provinces will be represented by this delegation and that precisely has to do with the fact that our sports are federal, broad, and represents the enormous diversity that our country has”highlighted Arrondo in the farewell ceremony.
