Parliamentary Secretary for Sport, Recreation and Voluntary Organizations Clifton Grima announced
how an area in Cospicua next to the Cottonera Sport Complex will be transformed into a family park with a project
made by SportMalta.
Parliamentary Secretary Clifton Grima explained how the currently identified site is in a state of disrepair and abandonment,
so this project will be a breath of fresh air to Cottonera families.
“This is a Government for the people and being for the people means coming up with projects and ideas that are at their core
there for people. It was SportMalta that came forward with a concept that is innovative and it sees Maltese families have a
space where they can enjoy their free time and find balance between work and the quality of lifeâ said Parliamentary Secretary Grima.

difference in peopleâs lives.

Maltese can go and spend some rest time while enjoying an adventure-filled space for
all including ziplines, walking trails, archery and wooden structures. This park will be distributed
in various areas equipped for different ages, accessible to all, and will also include water attractions.

minimal.
