Jalisco athletes have once again showcased their prowess at the Paralympic Games.
After a 14-year absence, the Mexican men’s national soccer team is returning to Guadalajara. On October 15, El Tri will face their closest regional rival, the United States, at the Akron Stadium in the city.
Bookending two weeks of fierce sporting rivalry at the 2024 Paris Olympics were two contrasting ceremonies:
Eleven athletes from Jalisco are heading to Paris to participate in the 2024 Paralympic Games, scheduled from August 28 to September 8.
Chapala’s neighbors Ixtlahuacan de los Membrillos failed at the last hurdle in its bid to win the Copa Jalisco soccer tournament, losing to Ameca in a penalty shootout in the men’s final last Sunday at the Jalisco Stadium in Guadalajara.

The finals of the Copa Jalisco soccer tournament for amateur teams from all the state’s municipalities will take place Sunday, July 28 at the Estadio Jalisco in Guadalajara.
Although none of the 19 athletes from Jalisco in the 109-strong Mexican delegation won Olympic medals, all performed creditably, with some delivering exceptional performances, noted Carlos González, coordinator at Code Jalisco (State Sports Council), upon their return home.
Chapala are out of the running in the Copa Jalisco men’s soccer tournament after back-to-back losses to Tomatlán in the quarter final round.
