The Spanish Superfinal was played last Saturday, with a new format including the Women’s and Men’s final being played on the same day in the same arena.
It was a big challenge for the federation due to the limited resources and also having that weekend local and regional elections, but their marketing department did a great job, and even got the interest from the National TV having both matches live on RTVEPlay. With a full arena with over 1000 spectators during both matches the federation were very satisfied with the success of the event and hopefully opening new interest for floorball.
The women´s final was played between CDE El Valle and Floorball Escorial. The first period ended with only one goal, for CDE El Valle, with more pressure for Escorial that didn’t cross the goal line. Second period started in a different way and CDE El Valle managed to score their goals very quickly and put the match in their favor. Through the final period Floorball Escorial tried to press even harder and scored two goals but that was not enough and CDE El Valle got the title.
In the men´s final CUF Leganes and CDE El Valle were facing each other for the title. The first and second periods saw a succession of opportunities for both teams but neither was able to put more distance in the display than one goal. But the third period was totally for CDE El Valle playing very efficiently and settling the final score at 3-8.
