Matapos ang ilang dekada, magkakaroon na ng malaking makeover ang Amoranto Sports Complex sa Quezon City.
Ayon kay Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte, ito ay para mahikayat ang mga kabataan na pumasok sa sports at makahanap ng potensyal na mga atleta.
“The master plan covers the construction of new sports facilities such as the Amoranto Arena which will have an approximate seating capacity of 3,500 for basketball competitions and other big events. The construction is now in full swing and is expected to be completed within the year,” pahayag ni Belmonte.
Inaayos na rin aniya ang Amoranto swimming pool para sa training at kompetisyon.
Kabilang sa mga itinatayo ang Olympic-size swimming pool na mayroong 10 lanes at elevated pool deck.
Matatapos na rin aniya sa taong 2022 ang two-story Amoranto Indoor Sports Facility
Ayon kay Belmonte, kakayanin na ng Amoranto na mag-host ng mga kompetisyon nang naayon sa local at international standards.
“The Amoranto Sports Complex should be a space where our home-grown athletes can train and improve their skills. With this master plan, we are renovating not just training facilities but also spaces where QC can host competitions and other public gatherings for QCitizens and guests,” pahayag ni Belmonte.
“A 5-story deck parking building is being built to support the high volume of people during an event. This can accommodate more than 300 cars, motorcycles, and bikes. A special area is also designated for buses,” dagdag ni Belmonte.
Plano rin ni Belmonte na ayusin ang grandstand at ang track and field oval.
Itinayo ang Amoranto noong 1960 na may laki na 5.8 ektarya sa Barangay Paligsahan sa Quezon City.
Ang Amoranto ay isang sports complex na mayroong grandstand with main stadium, eight-lane track and field oval, bleachers, at gymnasium.
Mayroon din itong tennis courts, badminton courts, martial arts facility, swimming pool, at iba pa.
