The Basque Beach Tennis and Minority Sports Association organized the 5th edition of the Basque CESTBALL Tournament at Artaza Park in Leioa. Despite the high temperatures recorded in recent days, the event was able to take place, and the final match featured two intense matches played on grass.
Bizkaitarrak and Gogorrak faced off for the title of Champion, with Bizkaitarrak clearly superior in the first match. In the second match, the match was evenly matched thanks to the performance of Axel, who had not been present for Gogorrak in the first match. However, this contribution was not enough to prevent Bizkaitarrak from winning again and taking the title.
Basque Cestoball’s goals now focus on obtaining better equipment and applying to participate as guests in the 2027 World Cup in France, which must be approved by all members of the International Cestoball Association.
The 2nd Euskal Kopa de Beach Cestoball will be held in September at Ereaga Beach (Getxo, Basque Country), and the 3rd Bilbao Cestoball Tournament will be held in December.
