The Athletic Club and the Federation will meet this Wednesday after the triathlete denounces the violation of language rights
- The club Atlético San Sebastián has taken note of what happened on June 23 and expressed its sadness for the situation created by the “serious accusation and its consequences”. The note says that the club tried to unite the two sides on Saturday, but “the Basque Federation cleaned up the problem at that time.” The meeting between the club and the Basque Triathlon Federation will take place today at 7 p.m.
On June 23, an athlete who participated in the San Sebastián Women’s Triathlon denounced that she had been fired from the race for speaking Basque. The judge who fired him says he disrespected him and threatened him. In the following lines you will find the note that the Club Atlético San Sebastián has made public:
“Club Atlético San Sebastián wishes to express its sadness with this document last Saturday, June 23rd, at Mujer 10. Because of the serious accusation in the triathlon and the situation caused by its consequences. Atlético emphasizes its support for Basque and multilingualism, as shown by its communications, social networks and actions.
In short, the situation is as follows: there is a triathlete who was disqualified, in his own words, for speaking in Basque; and a judge from the Basque Triathlon Federation, who denies the previous one and declares that he disqualified for having “disrespected an officer”. And we also want to clarify that the Basque Triathlon Federation is responsible for the appointment and management of judges and officers.
On Saturday, after the participant pointed out what had happened and tried to clarify the situation, the organization tried to unite the two parties, but the Basque Federation cleaned up the problem at that time. However, the affected athlete has been in contact with the Club to denounce what happened. Finally, the SS Athletic Club has convened a meeting for tomorrow afternoon of all affected parties.”

"No entiendo, en castellano por favor" eta gisakoak ohikoak dira eskolako guraso Whatsapp taldeetan, baina Irungo Txingudi ikastola publikoan euskara hutsean aritzeko modu erraz eta eraginkorra dute, behar duenarentzat itzulpen sistema berehalakoa ahalbidetuta.
