IES La Orden Shines with Six Medals in Estella and Rute Badminton Tournaments

The Club Bádminton IES La Orden secured six medals across two separate tournaments, highlighting the depth of talent from both its senior roster and youth academy. Competitors traveled to Estella in Navarre for the Máster N4 Absoluto and to Rute for a TTR competition, collecting podium finishes across multiple categories.

Title in Estella

The top result for the Huelva-based club arrived in Estella, where Pablo Abián and Silvia Redondo claimed the mixed doubles crown. Representing IES La Orden and Drop de Toledo respectively, the pair advanced through the group stage before reaching a three-set final against Jaume Pérez and Claudia Leal. Abián and Redondo secured the championship by a score of 19-21, 21-16, 21-16.

For Pablo Abián, a central figure in Spanish badminton and a cornerstone of the IES La Orden project, the tournament brought a second medal. Partnering with Javier Abián in men’s doubles, he reached the semifinals before falling to Alejandro and Ernesto Baschwitz, securing a bronze finish.

Alejandro Pérez Extends National Run

Alejandro Pérez added to the club’s senior success in Navarre. The player has established himself among national specialists, following a silver medal performance in the 2026 Spanish Absolute Championship alongside partner Álvaro Morán. His consistent presence in the latter rounds of national calendars highlights the competitive standing of the Huelva squad.

Youth Academy Delivers in Rute

While the senior squad competed in northern Spain, the IES La Orden youth ranks contested the TTR event in Rute. Julián Díaz earned a silver medal in under-19 men’s doubles, while club teammate Rafa Gómez secured the bronze in the same division. The results reflect ongoing development within the club’s training categories, providing younger competitors with competitive floor time.

Medal Summary

The six combined medals validate the structural approach of IES La Orden, balancing established veterans like Pablo Abián with emerging talent from the youth divisions as the club maintains its presence across national competition circuits.
