Alser Puerto Sagunto plan two friendlies and face training obstacles

 Alser Puerto Sagunto have begun their preparations during this Asobal League break for the European Championship, facing obstacles that will prevent them from using the Ovni court for up to four consecutive days.

The installation of an indoor football pitch and repairs to the Ovni’s parquet flooring mean that the team cannot train on Thursday, Friday, Monday or Tuesday. Of these four days, at least one can be dealt with by playing a friendly in Almassora on Friday the 20th against BM Torrevieja, starting at 20:00.

However, the Ovni will not be available again until the team play another friendly, this time against BM Huesca at 20:15 on Wednesday the 25th. At this match, red-and-white supporters will have the opportunity to purchase BONOS PSG at the ticket offices, a donation initiative launched by the red-and-white board to stabilise the club’s finances following the loss of more than €150,000 in public and private sponsorship compared with the previous season.

In view of this situation, the club hopes that municipal support will at least focus on these two aspects: logistical and financial. Firstly, the Sports Council should provide an alternative facility so that the work planned by Goran Dzokic and Alberto Estornell can progress, ahead of the demanding second half of the season awaiting the red-and-white team as they fight to secure sporting survival in their second consecutive Asobal League season.

Secondly, it is also hoped that the entire Municipal Corporation will get involved in attracting and placing PSG Bonds. In addition to the “retail” tier of €100 and €200 bonds for supporters and members, there are approximately €100,000 worth of €1,000 and €500 bonds for companies, shops and institutions, where the support of the Mayor and all political groups is crucial to their placement.
