A day to remember forever: Family Day
- The Mifel Tennis Open by Telcel Oppo celebrated the fourth edition of Family Day in Los Cabos
- The event, which invites children and parents from local communities to get closer to the sport, is part of the tournament’s social responsibility actions.
Los Cabos, July 15, 2025.- Family Day has become a tradition for Mextenis. A concept that was born in the 2022 edition of the Mifel Tennis Open by Telcel Oppo as part of the social responsibility program and that each year has gained more strength to become an event awaited by the local communities.
On this special day, around 40 boys and girls from the Gastelum Villalobos community and 80 from the Caribe Bajo community gathered together. In addition to parents who celebrated sports and relaxation. “We have been working with them since the stadium was in that community. It’s something they look forward to in their agenda. These children have not had the opportunity to come. The mothers disconnect from their routine and have a good time,” said Andrea Lopez, director of operations for the tournament.
Family Day is completely focused and designed to help the community of Los Cabos, especially those families in vulnerable economic situations.
In addition, the Cabo Sports Complex (CSC) and its facilities not only exist for the purpose of the tournament or entertainment events, it is also intended to be a tool for the development of the sport with local people. All with two special ingredients: learning and fun through the initiation in tennis with giant and normal size rackets, as a game.
In previous editions there were talks for mothers on respectful parenting and nutrition, as well as a medical module for a general check-up and free haircuts, but this year 2025 what could not be missed were the dance classes for mothers and the beauty salon. The aim was to get out of the routine in their daily lives and enrich the experience of the whole family.
There was also legal and financial advice for the parents.
“The same Mextenis staff is the one who is giving the advice, we extended internally that the workers of the company also contribute to the community in other ways”.
For Andrea López, who is personally and enthusiastically in charge of carrying out Family Day, this event seeks to leave a permanent mark on Los Cabos.
Also for the first time, teenagers from the Casa Rame Foundation, which focuses on the development of people with special abilities, were welcomed. Among them was Naomi Santaman, 19, who with her social aura and outgoing personality not only sought to be interviewed, but also did all the activities.
“I played tennis and it was amazing, but I have a lot of heat! We are in a fantastic place. It reminds me of my dad and my grandmother,” she said.
Together with his friend Alan, they drew their own in the painting class along with one of the clinic’s giant racquets and then took them to breakfast.
It was a day completely meant for them. It was a morning of tennis and laughter and smiles for the children and teenagers.
