The athlete, a member of the Marlines de Lanzarote Canoe Club, achieved first position in the national paracanoe selection over 200 meters, with a time of 52:60, thus ensuring his presence in the main continental event. In addition, he achieved a second position in the 3000 meter qualifier, which will also allow him to compete in the European Marathon, and he won the bronze medal in the Spanish Winter Championships in that same distance. During the meeting, Clavijo congratulated the athlete for his career and highlighted his ability to improve. “Axel is a source of pride for the Canary Islands and a reference for many young people, not only for his results, but also for the example set by the way he faces each challenge,” he said. The president also highlighted the commitment of the Government of the Canary Islands to promoting adapted sports and supporting those who compete at the highest level. In this sense, he expressed his support for his next goals, including the European Championship and his preparation for the Los Angeles 2028 Paralympic Games. Celmanti, a native of Corralejo (Fuerteventura), is experiencing a notable progression within paracanoe, a discipline in which he has established himself as one of the most prominent names on the national scene. His evolution has been valued by the coaching staff of the Spanish team, with whom he will continue working in his preparation for the upcoming international competitions. Celmanti is part of the paracanoe training program and will remain concentrated in Seville with the national team, where he will carry out different specific training sessions to continue advancing his performance. The Government of the Canary Islands maintains its commitment to the development of adapted sport as a tool for inclusion and generation of opportunities. In this context, the support for high-level athletes from the Ministry of Education, Vocational Training, Physical Activity and Sports contributes to strengthening the archipelago’s sports system and opening new avenues for those who represent the archipelago in elite competitions.
