A night to read basketball | Bilbao Basket

Bilbao Basket wants Miribilla to become a solidarity library for a moment, from which thousands of books will go to more humble homes with the intention that no child is left without the magic of books this Christmas. As tradition dictates, the Surne participates together with the Red Cross in a campaign that aims to bring smiles to the little ones on special dates, this time through reading. In Sunday’s match against Obradoiro (8:00 pm), the club invites its faithful oil slick to come with new books with which they will cover the parquet of ‘hell’ at halftime in the clash against the Galicians. Under the slogan ‘Your rights at stake’, the organizers intend to collect gifts in the form of written words that feed the kids’ hunger for culture, who will receive texts and works delivered by fans of the Bilbao team. Unlike other times, when stuffed animals were thrown onto the field, now they have opted for books because it is assumed that there will be enough toys in all the houses that need them.

The rain of stuffed animals was already a classic in Miribilla, where people responded en masse to the call of Bilbao Basket. This time a different gift has been chosen, the book, whose form of delivery is designed and ready for execution. This was explained by the club this Tuesday in a statement: «The spectators of ring one will be able to hand it over to the volunteers so that they fill the track with them, while those of ring two will slide them through one of the mobile canvases that the firefighters will place. of Bilbao so that they arrive at the field. We want to make history again. Also to thank the Bilbao Fire Brigade for offering to collaborate in the initiative. Help us make it possible! We can bring a moment of happiness to many people who need it this Christmas. Don’t come without a book!” It will be a beautiful and emotional moment, which will help thousands of children to work with the power of words.

In addition to the book, the great protagonist of this December 11, the Miribilla franchise will also set up a container for those who want to deliver toys. The ‘supply’ of stuffed animals, according to the Bilbao Basket, is guaranteed, which is why they are invited to bet on stories and literature. It is important to emphasize that the works delivered must be new for the gift to be perfect. The ‘Your rights at stake’ campaign was launched on December 1 and will be operational until January 4, shortly before the arrival of The Three Wise Men. According to the promoters of the initiative, in which Athletic also participates, the objective is to get “5,000 toys” so that no one is left without their Christmas present. Against the Obradoiro it will not rain stuffed animals, but rather the parquet will be paved with fantasy, imagination and knowledge.
