Not only is it a prestigious sporting event, but it also plays a crucial role in the development and promotion of sport globally, as well as in the promotion of health and social values.

The U.S. team continues its quest for Olympic gold, standing out not only for its individual talent, but also for its team cohesion and strategy. The performances so far have reaffirmed their status as favorites for the title, as they move confidently into the final stages of the tournament.

Despite not advancing beyond the group stage, Puerto Rico’s participation in the Olympics was a testament to their resilience and ability to improve. The experience gained in Paris 2024 will serve as a solid foundation for future competitions as the team continues to work to improve and compete at the highest level.

In addition to its design features, the stadium boasts a wide range of technological innovations: it is equipped with a sliding roof that makes it possible to change from an open-air stadium to an indoor venue in just 30 minutes. Thanks to its modular design and adaptable layout, the Lille stadium has hosted various international competitions in different sports, in addition to being the home of the local soccer team. It hosted the 2014 and 2017 Davis Cup finals, several 2016 European Cup soccer matches, the 2015 European Basketball Championship and the 2017 World Handball Championship. In 2024, the Pierre Mauroy Stadium will host the Olympic Games handball tournaments. In turn, the venue has also been the stage for top-level artistic performances, such as Rihanna, Johnny Hallyday and Depeche Mode.
