Without a doubt, it is a sport that makes you fall in love, but it is also a love that is supported by the data, which is why today I propose a quantitatively suggestive column.
In the middle of the season, Segovian basketball will exceed 500 matches between the federated competition and Avispa Calixta.
In the month that closes the transfer period, there are already 1,015 licenses federated by the thirteen clubs that participate in the FBCyL competitions. The license cake is divided into three large pieces. CD Base has 32%, the five teams in the province have registered 36% of the total licenses and the remaining 32% are the seven teams registered in the capital.
Of the total number of clubs that play in Castilla y León, 22% do so in Segovia, without a doubt a relevant figure. But if something makes me fall in love with Segovian basketball, it is the relevant presence and the work that is being done in the different towns, promoting the practice of sports and working proactively to attract the attention of boys and girls.
The provincial top five is led by Cuéllar, followed by Saltamontes de Valverde del Majano. Jabalines San Rafael is third and La Lastrilla and Cantimpalos, fourth and fifth respectively.
In the villages each season adds the illusion of families and the commitment of athletes. Undoubtedly the pillar of merit is the work, time and selfless involvement of many coaches and managers.
The objective in the towns is not usually to lift trophies, but to form groups of passionate athletes who retain their commitment to basketball.
Clubs like CB Eufón Cuéllar that, with nine teams in different categories, are an example that deserves everyone’s recognition and applause.
