II Jornada Nacional de Básquetbol 2026 Antorcha, Digi Mart USA News (Mexico): The Movimiento Antorchista Nacional, through its National Sports Commission (CODENA), is calling on girls, boys and young people from across the country to take part in the II National Basketball Day 2026, which will be held simultaneously on November 15 starting at 8:00 a.m. in all states of the Republic.
According to the call published on the organization’s website, www.movimientoantorchista.org.mx, registration is available from publication until Thursday, November 12, through the sports officials in each state. The event includes the categories Infantil (born 2015–2017), Juvenil A (2012–2014), Juvenil B (2009–2011), Juvenil C (2006–2008) and Libre.
For the Antorchista Movement, the sports day is an important tool for popular awareness, as it promotes sport as an educational, social and personal transformation tool rather than a path to fame, wealth or individual vanity.
In this regard, the organization reaffirms the vision of national Antorcha leader Aquiles Córdova Morán, who has stated: “The athlete is a man of quick, agile mind, capable of making decisions and educating his will; the athlete is a serene, calculating and brave man who does not give in to problems, because he knows he will always find the solution.
At the same time, being an athlete means making oneself beautiful and serene.”
Under this concept, Antorcha, through its National Sports Commission, maintains that sport develops the body but above all educates the will, the mind and the ability to solve problems, forming a “new man” who is more disciplined, persevering, supportive, cultured, healthy and committed to collective well-being.
At the same time, the organization rejects a commercial sports model that promotes individualism by presenting sporting success solely as a path to fame or money. Instead, it argues that sport should be a school of character, solidarity and collective organization, able to keep young people away from vices, violence and addictions by offering discipline, community and goals.
With the II National Basketball Day 2026, the Antorchista Movement reaffirms its goal of permanently and widely promoting sports practice in Mexico as part of its project to train citizens capable of organizing, transforming their communities and participating in a project of social change in the country.
