According to Mejia, the aforementioned commission has already carried out a similar inspection in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico, and once the current trip is over, it will offer a report on the realities of the cities aspiring to host the Games, so that the Executive Committee of Centro Caribe Sports can then choose who will host the event.

It is worth recalling that Panama was the country chosen for the event, but its government declined to host it, alleging the great economic crisis generated in the nation by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Sources close to the regional organization consider that Puerto Rico has all the characteristics to host the event, both for its economic situation and for the logistics set up, which date back to Mayagüez-2010.
