History edit

CRESO was the initiative of Mr. Felipe Vicini, Managing Partner of the asset management firm INICIA (previously known as VICINI).[3] Mr. Vicini had read a report by Chris Dillow from the London Times newspaper after the Beijing Olympics that praised the Dominican Republic’s performance in the Beijing Games — the number of medals obtained contrasted with the amount of resources the Dominican Republic receives and the number of athletes sent to Beijing. According to World Bank data, Dominican Republic occupies the 179th place among the countries with higher per capita income, but occupied the 47th spot in medals won during the Beijing Olympics. Felipe Vicini encountered the President of the Dominican Olympic Committee, Luis Mejia, on a flight from Santo Domingo to New York, which led to the first meeting between interested partners.[4]

Eight companies initially joined to make up CRESO and sponsor ten sports disciplines: INICIA, Corripio Group, Dominican Popular Bank, Claro, Central Romana Corporation, SID Group, Rica Group and Ferquido.[4] CRESO plans are based on a four-year process, which begins with the National Games, then the Central American and Pan-American games, and ends with the Olympic Games. CRESO also focuses on the academic preparation of the athletes, many of which receive scholarships to the universities of their choice, local as well as international institutions.[4] CRESO chairman, Felipe Vicini, explains that “the program promotes sports, educational and social development, so that long-term we can create model leaders and citizens, committed to their country.[5] We want every athlete to compete and study a career, so that when their sportsmanship years end, they can continue working, as productive members of society in the national labor market”.[6]

Sports edit

To date, CRESO supports athletes in 17 different Olympic sports. These are Athletics, Basketball, Boxing, Equestrian, Fencing, Golf, Gymnastics, Judo, Karate, Swimming, Sailing, Skateboarding, Swimming, Table Tennis, Taekwondo, Tennis, Weightlifting and Wrestling.[7]

Athletes edit

The program invests in more than 90 athletes, some of which have won Olympic and/or Pan-American Medals. For example, Luguelín Santos in Athletics,[8] Yvonne Losos in Equestrian,[9] Luisito Pie in Taekwondo,[10] Víctor Estrella Burgos in Tennis,[11] Beatriz Pirón[12] and Yudelkis Contreras in Weightlifting,[13] among others. In the past, Olympic medalists Gabriel Mercedes and Félix Sánchez were athletes supported by CRESO, and now they serve as role models and motivational speakers for other athletes. They both have university degrees and work in the development of new athletes in their respective sports areas.[14][15]
