Iván Montoya and Óscar García will wear the red shirt again

The first-team players of Fertiberia Balonmano Puerto Sagunto have been called up by the Spanish Junior and Youth Handball Teams for the tournaments taking place this Easter.

Fertiberia Balonmano Puerto Sagunto are delighted that two of their players, Iván Montoya and Óscar García, have once again been called up by the Royal Spanish Handball Federation for the next Junior and Youth training camps respectively. Montoya will once again be a junior international in the friendly double-header against Croatia on 11 and 13 April in the city of Poreč. Meanwhile, Puerto-born Óscar García will play in a tournament in Lagoa with the youth internationals from 10 to 12 April, against the national teams of France, Portugal and Israel.

The Junior internationals' training camp, in which Iván will participate, will run from the 8th to the 14th, with morning and afternoon training sessions before travelling to Croatia on the 10th to play the friendly double-header. The red-and-white pivot was delighted to receive the news by email that he had once again been called up by Isidoro Martínez and said: “I am very happy to return to the national team for this new activity to prepare for the summer World Championship, which is here in Spain, and the aim is none other than to continue with this preparation and fine-tune certain details ahead of the World Championship.”

Óscar García has just returned from a recent training camp with the youth internationals. In the middle of the Fallas celebrations, the red-and-white centre-back had an intense week of handball: “The training-camp week was quite intense in terms of technical-tactical work and physical training. The truth is that it was a very rewarding experience to train and play with and against teammates I had not seen for some time. During the camp we were able to compete against BM Alcobendas and Ikasa BMadrid, especially so that we could adopt a role more focused on competition.” García highlights this in comparison with the previous training camp. García was also very happy to receive Alberto Suárez's call-up and is looking forward to wearing the Spanish national-team shirt again.
