Cazorla Puente de las Herrerias won its fourth consecutive title at the top club competition. He did it in Villarreal where he is the National League’s final phase. The second Cazorla team won the Second Division of its native sport’s Regional League. Now, the starting team has won the Division of Honor.
Javi Navarro, Josemi Nieto, and Dani Moreno are all university graduates who have been trained at the club. Jose Miguel Nieto, the fourth player (one of the oldest players in the first men’s category), was also the only one who participated in all five editions of the matches. Martin Agea, a veteran player, was substituted for the Cazorla team.
Andalusian bowling is a high-level sport that attracts young athletes. This is evident in the fact that six of the participating clubs have used youth players to start their matches. The League consists mainly of athletes younger than 25 years old.
Cazorla finished the competition undefeated, just like in 2017. He also conceded only two draws. The first was with Sierra de las Villas Decorcanal de Mogon (the white club’s long-standing rivals), in a match that started with the triumph of Paco Espinosa and Antonio Castillo’s Mogon team. They are two of tennis’ greatest players (they have 7 individual national titles, 8 couples titles, and eight combined). Julio Cano served as a substitute.
Sierra de las Villas won first point 6-4 after coming back from 1-4 down. Cazorla responded with 800 pins and loads, giving no chance to his rivals. He took second place, 6-2. Mogon’s team tied with Onda (6-1 4-6), but lost to Villarreal (1 1-6, 0-6) for third place.
The second tie between the cazorlenos came in the final game against El Ferial Viajes Sendatur de La Caleruela. It was decided by the organization. The match was suspended after the teams won the first point 6-0, and the second 1-0. This occurred before the rain that fell in Villarreal Municipal.
Onda’s Castellon club, which included Eduardo Martinez and Cristian Sanchez, Jose Ramon, and Alex Contreras was second, losing to Cazorla (6-4 and 6-4), and drawing with Mogon.
