For that reason, and especially because this is the European year of Education through sport, the University of Navarra has organized more than 30 activities with 20 different modalities and 9 exhibitions aimed at all those who want to participate in this day." This was stated by the Vice President of University Extension, José López Guzmán, in the press conference that was held to present the XI edition of the Sports Day.
