On march 8, the Spar Citylift Girona lost the final of the Cup in Salamanca against Perfumerías Avenida clearly superior. There was the end of the season. The pandemic of coronavirus was close to everyone at home and, at least for names, the best staff that had never had a team Fontajau ended without being able to prove where they could get both in League and in Eurocup. Laia Palau, Xargay, Vasic, Elonu, Bishop… No competition was able to finish and now, more than three months later, the basketball already look forward. Towards a new season that, if the so pronosticades second and third waves of the virus do not prevent, you will have to start sooner than ever before because in the horizon of next summer there are both the Eurobàsquet as the posposats Olympic Games in Tokyo. In particular, the proposal that the Spanish Basketball Federation has put on the table is that the Liga Endesa starts on the 9th of September. But before that, the DEC proposes that the first four of the last season, which was not completed, either the super cup in the form of a Final Four. That is to say, Girona, Salamanca, Gernika and Valencia is jugarien the first title of the season 5 and 6 of September.
The approach of the FEB leaves outside the Open Day, the format of a first day of League with her only as a “celebration” of the start of the championship, but on the other hand, broadens the super cup, which traditionally is played in a single match on the trail of the champion’s League. Now, after the season has finished without champion’s League, the Spanish federation wants a super cup four teams with Gernika and Valencia, third and fourth classified at the time of the break of the League, accompanied by Uni and Perfumerías Avenida. This super cup it would the weekend of 5 and 6 September, semifinals on Saturday and final on Sunday, with one of the four teams assuming the role of host. Only is the FEB, the headquarters of the Spanish super cup will be decided following the schedules to economic watching between Girona, Salamanca, Gernika or Valencia, who presents a better proposal of organization, accommodations, sponsors…
Now, Girona Fontajau not included in this “war” when the pavilion girona still drags the consequences of the flood caused by Gloria. The floor that gave away the Government from them again in Tarragona and, at the moment, neither the Uni nor the Basketball Girona of the LEB Gold will be able to use the central track of Fontajau in the preseason. As has happened with the case of the final section of the ACB, Valencia is an option to keep in mind with the combination of the pavilion of the small fountain and the facilities of the Estate. For a super cup female and for almost all.
The League, on the 9th of September
The calendar of the FIBA and its competitions, both the resolution of the titles of the last season, as the start of the new academic year in their tournaments, it does not allow that the proposal for the dates of FEB is still firm. But, for the moment, the idea is that three days after this super cup to start the League, on Wednesday, September 9, with a phase regulating that will extend until 3 April and then, between 7 April and 5 may disputaria the play-off for the title. The proposal of the FEB is that the Cup will play between 4 and 7 march, maintaining the format of 8 teams, in a sketch for a calendar that already includes the two windows FIBA (from the 10th to the 18th of November and the 31st of January to 8th of February) that require you to stop the competitions of clubs.
