CAR, Centro de Alto Rendimiento de Coldeportes
In the heart of the Colombian capital 2.620m above sea level, stands the CAR of Coldeportes, a facility part of the 96 world centers of the Association of Sport Performance Centers (ASPC) and one of the largest high performance centers in Latin America. Not only is the center appealing to Olympic and Paralympic athletes, but also young students train daily at Coldeportes in the pool, on the soccer fields, tennis or volleyball courts and on the running track. After three failed renovations of the old pool, the CAR of Coldeportes requested the help of Myrtha Pools, who, with its exclusive Renovaction technology, completed the project and gave new life to the Olympic sized pool at the center. The 8 lane pool now has an electronic timing system, lighting and is equipped with Myrtha Track Start blocks and Myrtha Backstroke Start Systems.
The Myrtha accessories together with the stands and the large windows, that allow natural lighting during the day, make the swimming pool perfect for national and international competitions. The temperate climate, the accommodations for athletes and the pool approved according to international standards make the CAR Coldeportes a center attractive for foreign athletes who want to take advantage of the benefits of altitude training. The center is managed by the Colombian Ministry of Sport, which has underlined the relevance of Myrtha technology for the renovation of the pool.
