The Princess of Asturias Leonor is already integrated into the activities of the naval school of Marín, in Pontevedra.

After the formal ceremony of presenting the insignia, in which Leonor wore the uniform of a white short-sleeved shirt and white trousers, it was time for sport and the Princess, like her colleagues, wore a kit of a short-sleeved shirt and blue shorts. With her team, she participated in the inter-brigade sports competition, in which the Third Brigade, to which Leonor belongs, was the winner.
