Kristin knocked down the nets, but not the desire to play. Let's rebuild the Caxieira Sports Court: an inclusive, free and sustainable space. Hand in hand, we will renovate fences, changing rooms, paintings and sunlight. The space is yours!

The Heart of the Caxieira Community, Santa Eufémia, Leiria

The Caxieira Sports Complex in Santa Eufémia is much more than just a sports venue; it's the true social lung of our town. Given its value to the population and the meeting of cultures and generations that occur daily in this space for social interaction, its rehabilitation has become an absolute priority for the Parish Council.

This is an inclusive, freely accessible, and informal space where sport serves as a universal language to unite all who live here. However, the passage of Storm Kristin left deep scars that compromise the safety and full use of this collective heritage.

To restore dignity and functionality to the multi-sports field (synthetic turf), the intervention requires: Complete replacement of the fence, rehabilitation of the changing rooms (hot water), restoration of the lighting system, and general maintenance ( including painting).

Given all that it represents for the community, it seems essential that the reconstruction be carried out involving everyone, that is, hand in hand with the population .

Standing side by side, hand in hand, every contribution is a step towards victory against Kristin's havoc!

Who We Are

The Union of Parishes of Santa Eufémia and Boa Vista has, within the current legal framework, responsibilities for promoting and safeguarding the interests of the population in fundamental areas such as culture, sports, leisure, development and community protection.

We see ourselves as the driving force behind the development and well-being of our land, working daily to ensure that public spaces contribute to improving the quality of life for our inhabitants.

The Caxieira Sports Complex is a space we are proud of, with free access, available for informal sports practice, and which embodies our commitment to:

  • Social Inclusion: A multicultural meeting point where sport unites all cultures and generations.
  • Sustainability: A commitment to replacing lighting through solar energy, promoting an "ECO-Sports Complex".
  • Education: A vital infrastructure strategically located next to the Santa Eufémia Primary School , which also serves the school population (whether in the context of school activities or within the scope of family support, commonly known as leisure time).

Our goal is to guarantee that the infrastructure is available to the entire population as soon as possible, meeting all safety requirements.
