The leading electricity company in the Canary Islands, serving all of Spain, reinforces its commitment to grassroots sports in the Canary Islands by supporting an initiative that promotes the values of basketball among children and young people across the island.
There are sponsors who put their logo on a poster or a t-shirt. And there are companies that decide to truly get involved in projects that help build the future of the Canary Islands.
With this philosophy, Canaluz , the 100% Canarian energy company, has renewed its commitment to the sport of the Islands by becoming the official sponsor of the XI Summer Clinic of the Gran Canaria Basketball Veterans Association , an already established event, as demonstrated by its ten previous editions, and which will bring together boys and girls between 8 and 15 years old from July 6 to 17 at the Pepe Armas courts in Siete Palmas, where they will learn basketball from some of the great references of this sport in the Canary Islands.
A Luxury Ambassador
The initiative also features the participation of Carmelo Cabrera, Olympic Ambassador of Canaluz and one of the greatest Canary Island legends of Spanish basketball, whose sporting and human trajectory represents the same values that inspire this project: effort, respect, camaraderie, overcoming and inclusion.
"Basketball has given me unforgettable moments, but the most important thing it has given me is its values. That's why I'm so excited to be part of a clinic like this, where boys and girls not only learn to play, but also to live together, to respect each other, and to work as a team. If we can help them leave as better people, as well as better players, then our goal will have been achieved," says Carmelo Cabrera.
The former Spanish international also highlights the importance of Canary Islands companies supporting these types of initiatives.
"It's a pleasure to share this project with Canaluz. Their commitment to sport goes beyond mere sponsorship; it's a genuine commitment to supporting our clubs, our families, and grassroots sport in all its facets. The Canary Islands need companies that believe in their people, and Canaluz is proving that they do."
For Canaluz, the support for this Clinic is part of a broader strategy to support sport as a tool for social cohesion, training and the promotion of healthy lifestyle habits.

Canaluz's Director of Communication and Marketing, Héctor M. Pérez Quevedo , emphasizes that the company wants its growth to always be accompanied by a return for the Canary Islands society.
"Canaluz was born in the Canary Islands to provide energy to homes and businesses throughout Spain, but also to give back some of that energy to our land. Sport is an extraordinary school of life and we believe that supporting initiatives like this Clinic means investing in the future of our children and our society."
Pérez Quevedo emphasizes that the collaboration with Carmelo Cabrera perfectly symbolizes the company's philosophy.
"Having Carmelo as our National Olympic Ambassador is a true privilege. He represents sporting excellence, but also humility, approachability, and a commitment to the Canary Islands. These are values with which we fully identify and which we want to convey in every action we undertake."
In addition to supporting the Clinic, Canaluz maintains a collaboration with the Gran Canaria Basketball Veterans Association that allows it to offer special conditions in the electricity supply to players, coaches, clubs and fans, facilitating access to a close, transparent and savings-oriented service.
Canaluz Challenge
On the other hand, the 11th Summer Clinic of the Gran Canaria Basketball Veterans Association will feature numerous gifts and surprises in this very special edition for the enjoyment of its participants, including the celebration - for the first time - of the Canaluz Challenge , one of the best-kept secrets of the organization, which is reserving the best trophies for the contest of this challenge, and which will not be revealed until the final days of the Clinic that will be held at the Pepe Armas courts, until next July 17.
This eleventh edition of the Gran Canaria Basketball Veterans Association 's Summer Clinic will feature another wonderful surprise: the active participation of the children from the Felices con Narices Association , who will be present on Tuesday, July 14th. This will be a fantastic opportunity to celebrate, foster camaraderie, and unite people of all abilities through the universal sport of basketball.
With this new project, Canaluz continues to consolidate its support for Canarian sport, which in recent months has been present in numerous sporting and social initiatives in the Archipelago, reaffirming a commitment that goes far beyond sponsorship.
Because, for Canaluz, energy doesn't just power homes. It also powers dreams, opportunities, and the future of Canarian sport for everyone.
Canaluz. The Canarian energy of our sport.
