Everyone with Valencia and CN Sedaví-Valmasters, severely affected by the DANA!

Since Tuesday, misfortune has struck many towns in the Valencian Community due to the most destructive DANA of this century. Specifically, in the town of Sedaví, one of the most affected in l'Horta sud with around 10,000 inhabitants, it is where CN Sedaví-ValMasters, a club along with its associated entity Salvamento y Socorrismo de Silla, is headquartered. Let's remember that the club presided over by Agustín García successfully organized the 2021 Spanish Summer Master Swimming Championship RFEN Aquatics and today has been left completely unplayable. Our solidarity is with them, and obviously with the deceased, missing, and affected by the tragedy.

On Thursday, we contacted their president Agustín García who told us that "the situation is dire, worse during and after the flood. Lack of water, electricity, food as roads and access ways are blocked with debris and cars. The Sedavía facility is devastated. It has hit us like a bullseye as our area is precisely l'Horta sud."

For CN Sedaví-ValMasters, this has affected them through "10 families with losses of cars, houses, businesses, and 1 person injured in the hospital (who has been discharged) and to the Silla section, 90% of athletes suffered material losses." Now, "the important thing is what is needed, to help people who come first."

The news outlet Relevo from its Valencia office presents a heartbreaking story about CN Sedaví with images of the aftermath of the DANA at their premises: Tragedy that swept through Sedaví and the solidarity of the swimming world: "90% of our athletes were affected" | Relay

Everyone with Valencia, everyone with CN Sedaví-Valmasters, and SS Silla! Stay strong!
