The match against Cuatro Rayas Valladolid: another opportunity to support our academy

Given the club's precarious financial situation, Alser Puerto Sagunto's Board of Directors has been forced to take measures to help finance the extraordinary expenses resulting from the great success of its youth teams this season. The youth and children's teams' qualification for the Spanish Championship in their respective categories entails travel and accommodation costs that the club is currently unable to meet.

For this reason, it has declared A DAY FOR THE SPANISH YOUTH CHAMPIONSHIPS, the following match at the Ovni against Cuatro Rayas BM Valladolid (Saturday 5 May, 18:30). This measure involves a voluntary £5 contribution for members attending the match, as well as a voluntary £5 contribution for the match programme, which is normally distributed on match days at a price of one euro. Admission for non-members will likewise be five euros, although for them payment will be compulsory.

The proceeds from the friendly match against Chile were already allocated to this purpose, but it was not as successful as hoped and only 800 euros could be raised for each team, an amount clearly insufficient to cover the total cost of a weekend away from home for around 16 people per team.

We appeal to all our supporters so that, despite the lamentable sporting situation of our Asobal team and the widespread disappointment of being near the bottom, together with such a negative financial situation, they can once again demonstrate their support for this club, and particularly for those who represent our sporting future, by voluntarily contributing those five euros to help reduce as far as possible the contribution required from the players' families. What they have rightfully earned on the court, and the budget shortfalls caused by some sponsors' failures to meet their commitments, should not prevent us from representing our city and our club at the Spanish Youth and Children's Championships.

We look forward to seeing you all!
