‘Chovi’ will no longer coach the Fertiberia B team

Youth coach José Vicente Tomás ‘Chovi’, who has led our Senior B team in Primera Nacional for the past two seasons, will not continue in the role. Chovi has decided not to remain in charge of this team, to which he has given 200% at all times. He began the 2017/2018 season as assistant coach of our ASOBAL team, took charge in the Cup after head coach Nicola Milos resigned, and later led the Primera Nacional team after Sergio Berrios took charge of the ASOBAL side.

Chovi took over the Primera Nacional team when they were in the relegation places and ended the season in mid-table, achieving the objective set for the team. The 2018/2019 season was marked by a small first-team squad, which meant that the Primera Nacional side had to provide players on a continual basis, sacrificing group training sessions. Despite this considerable effort, their survival was never in question.

Added to all this was the management and coordination of the Municipal Sports Schools’ handball programme, a task requiring a level of dedication that only he and a few others have shown themselves capable of providing. The Club Board, including the Sporting Department, would like to thank him for his dedication and excellent work. Naturally, we hope he will remain with us, coaching a team with a lower level of demands, enabling him to combine his passion for handball and our club with his personal commitments.
