Women’s Basketball League | Schedule and where to see the final

Valencia Basket will look for its first title of the Women’s League as of this Thursday against Perfumeries Avenue with the court factor in favor in a play-off final best of three games.

It is the third consecutive year that the Valencians and the Salamancans compete for the title, but this time they do it with the switched roles. Thanks to the first place he achieved in the regular season, the team orange has the court factor in its favor and the series will start this way in the fountain of Saint Louis and will return there, to the fontin case a third meeting is necessary.

And this is highly valued by the players, as one of their leaders explained, Queralt Casas. “For a long time now, the field factor has been in our favour. And in Valencia there is a very dedicated public. It seems typical, but La Fonteta is our sixth player. Here we play at a different pace because the fans and the team motivate each other”.

In fact, this determining factor was decisive for Avenida in the two previous editions. But the perfume companies have experience of all kinds in finals – not in vain are they going to play it for the 17th time in a row – and they have also managed to win the Basketball League against home court.

With a squad that has undergone many changes compared to last year and the loss of Michaela Onyenwere (who has signed for the WNBA, the North American league), the Castilian and Leonese team appeals to its competitive ability and to one last effort.

“If we have reached the final it is because all these months we have done a great job and the team arrives prepared”, he comments. Andrea Vilaró. “The one who is capable of taking the first game has half a league in his pocket (…) The important thing will be to maintain the energy that we usually have”, adds one of the internationals of the Avenue Basketball Club.

The two teams also seek not to close the year blank.
