The Davao del Norte Sports and Tourism Complex (DNSTC) is a sports complex in Tagum, Davao del Norte, Philippines, and is the largest sports complex in the Davao region. It was built on the area of the former Davao Sports Complex, torn down by fire in 2003. Construction began and ended on two significant dates: 11-11-11 (11 November 2011) and 12-12-12 (12 December 2012). The complex is the main hub for the 2015 Palarong Pambansa events, including the opening and closing ceremonies. ==History== A previous sports facility called the Davao Sports Complex stood in the lot where the future DNSTC is to be built; the old sports complex consisted of two wooden grandstands and a partially-covered gymnasium, with a gravel athletics track, a partially-turfed football field, and a gravel baseball diamond. In 2003, the larger main grandstand was accidentally torn down by fire caused by a welding mishap during maintenance work, and the provincial government decided to demolish the two grandstands as a result, leaving only the gymnasium standing. The lot was then used as a motocross track. In 2007, plans were being made to reconstruct the sports complex using better materials with an avant-garde design, with the aim of building the most modern sports facility throughout the Philippines. The initial design was drawn up and presented in 2008; this was designed by Sol U. Flores (who also designed the New City Hall of Tagum). The initial cost for the reconstruction project amounted to PHP350 million. However, the 2008 economic crisis hit Asia, causing the prices for the project materials (which were mostly imported) to skyrocket beyond the estimated budget. This prompted the provincial government to use the budget for other services.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=With new stadium in place, Davao del Norte revives Palaro hosting bid )〕 In 2011, Davao del Norte Governor Rodolfo P. Del Rosario revived the project as part of the province's bid to host the 2015 Palarong Pambansa, but this time it followed a more conventional design. Project cost amounted to PHP 243 million.〔 Construction began on 11 November 2011 and was completed on the target date of 12 December 2012. The Provincial Government plans to construct a sports academy within the DNSTC after the 2015 Palarong Pambansa in order to support the province's sports development programs for its homegrown athletes and athletes throughout Mindanao and the entire country as well. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Davao del Norte Sports Complex」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
