WHAT WILL EYOF BRING #1? INVESTING IN THE FUTURE OF THE CITY AND REGION

Sunday, 20 February 2022

Preparations for the largest multi-sport event in Slovakia continue. The organisers decided to explain the benefits and advantages of the EYOF, especially for the inhabitants of the Banská Bystrica region. The campaign focuses on one area each week and presents all the benefits for the city and the region. 

Investing in the future of the city and the region 

Subsidies for the city and region

The organisation of a major international event will not be possible without public institutions such as cities, regions, Slovak ministries and the European Union. All grants awarded from these entities are used by the organising committee to prepare the event. 

The citizens of the city will also feel the reflection of investments 

In addition to subsidies, the region will also benefit from other investments, which will have a positive impact on infrastructure, economics, sports, social affairs and the environment. 

Reconstruction of dormitories 

The EYOF will be attended by more than 7,000 domestic and foreign participants. This number requires a large accommodation capacity. Banská Bystrica boarding schools will also be used for these needs. To meet the requirements of the EYOF, they underwent a reconstruction which will be appreciated by boarding students after the event. The premises can also be used for other major international events. 

Reconstruction of local roads around the city 

Organising the event brings also the advantages in the form of reconstruction of the roads. It is necessary to have quality roads for comfortable movement of all participants in the city, but also outside the city due to the ongoing bicycle races. Citizens will thus use the repaired roads even after the end of the EYOF Banská Bystrica 2022 event.
