Overview
- President Claudia Sheinbaum abandered the Mexican delegation at Palacio Nacional on Monday, naming Olympic medallists Juan Manuel Celaya and Gabriela Rodríguez as flagbearers for the opening ceremony.
- CONADE confirmed a 60 million‑peso allocation to cover preparation and operational needs including camps, scholarships, travel and medical and technical staff for the team.
- The agency published a results‑based incentive table that caps payments to medallists and coaches and confirms there will be no universal participation bonus.
- Monetary awards range up to 50,000 pesos for individual gold with scaled amounts for silver and bronze and lower sums for shared and team events, and each athlete or coach may receive only the amount for their highest‑value medal.
- About 698 athletes — including multiple Olympic and world medallists — travel to Santo Domingo to defend Mexico’s regional lead starting July 24, a performance that CONADE will use to evaluate athletes and programs for Los Ángeles 2028.
