In the document presented to the jury, the Galician Federation emphasizes "the ability to overcome, sacrifice, dedication, commitment and humility", as well as the sportsmanship of a triathlete whose license was withdrawn by the Higher Sports Council sports due to a cardiac abnormality.

“Despite not being able to compete officially, Gómez Noya continued training at the highest level and with the highest demand. Thanks to never losing confidence in himself, and after recovering his license, his performance has been spectacular ”, he emphasizes from the Galician Federation.
