The universities of the Valencian Community and the Trinidad Alfonso Foundation have renewed their commitment for another year to promote university sports through the Uniesport initiative. This project, now in its eighth edition, involves nine entities collaborating on projects to promote and boost sports within the university sphere.

Through this agreement, the universities and the Trinidad Alfonso Foundation will continue to collaborate in the development of university sports in all its aspects and to raise awareness among society and athletes about the importance of balancing sports and studies. The ultimate goal is to make university sports more visible and to have its athletes serve as ambassadors of the Valencian Community. Therefore, they will continue to display the "Comunitat de l’Esport" brand on their uniforms during Spanish and international championships in which they participate.

The agreement was signed at an event held at the Catholic University of Valencia. Present at the event were the rector of the University of Valencia (UVEG), María Vicenta Mestre Escrivà; the rector of the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV), José Esteban Capilla Romá; the Vice-Rector for Culture and Sports of the University of Alicante (UA), Catalina Iliescu Gherghiu; the rector of Jaume I University (UJI), Eva Alcón Soler; the rector of UMH, Juan José Ruiz Martínez; the rector of the CEU Cardenal Herrera University (CEU-UCH), Higinio Marín Pedreño; the rector of the Catholic University of Valencia San Vicente Mártir (UCV), José Manuel Pagán Agulló; and the director of the Trinidad Alfonso Foundation, Juan Miguel Gómez.

The collaboration agreement is structured along several lines: firstly, to assist young university students who, while pursuing higher education, maintain high sports performance; secondly, to provide more tools to increase the visibility of CADU (University Sports Championships); thirdly, to promote the "Comunitat de l’Esport" brand by providing assistance for the acquisition of sports equipment for university athletes; and fourthly, to provide financial support to university athletes participating in international competitions. Additionally, as usual, the Foundation chaired by Juan Roig will financially support athletes from the FER Project who are pursuing undergraduate, master's, or official doctoral studies.

**Trinidad Alfonso Foundation Awards**

Finally, the VIII Trinidad Alfonso Foundation Awards for University Athletes will be reinstated, which are specific awards for athletes with outstanding academic records. As in previous years, an annual award will be given to one male and one female athlete at each of the eight universities for those who balance their sports careers with their university studies. In total, 16 students will be awarded €1,000 each, along with a commemorative plaque. Likewise, two Extraordinary Awards will be announced annually (best male and female student athlete) for the best academic records among those who have completed their studies at one of the seven universities. The award will consist of €2,000 and a commemorative plaque. The Foundation will be responsible for disbursing the prize money.
