The Foundation

Clínicas Rincón has spent almost three decades helping different sports clubs and athletes in the province of Málaga, and that is why this foundation was created: to make the most of those contributions and to promote sport for the benefit of health. The fundamental aim of Fundación Rincón is to bring health and sport together within a single sphere, upholding the relationship between the two and their mutual dependence. Guided by the principle «Health and Sport for the love of it», it seeks to promote sporting and healthcare activities that have a positive impact on social wellbeing.
