Barca Sorli Discau, Kings of Europe

Roger Bogunyà


Barca’s basketball and hockey teams all have one thing in common-victory! This Sunday saw the roller hockey team win the European Cup, just as the basketball team had done three weeks ago, and the handball team just miss out in their European final.


Sunday was a thrilling evening for the club, with Barça Sorli Discau facing Roncato Patí Vic in the European final in Valdagno and then Barça Borges going for their European title against Kiel in Cologne. Whilst the Hockey players ran out clear 4-1 winners, Xavi Pascual’s handball team were narrowly defeated 34-36 .

Pujalte’s first title

The season’s balance in Europe showed eight wins and just one draw – an impeccable record that has been won with some spectacular attacking hockey and things could get even better next weekend when they could take the 13th successive Spanish League title. Nowhere else is hockey played so thrillingly as at the Palau and Pujalte has carried on from the great work done by Figueroa and Paüls over the last few years that has brought 19 European Cups .

Xavi Pascual comes close to eighth European Cup

Coach Xavi Pascual can boast five titles in the year and a half he’s been in charge as well as taking them so close to an eighth European title, whilst David Barrufet in his last game, just missed out on his eighth title, despite a great performance in Cologne.

It’s been a great season all round at the club, with two of the sections winning European Cups and a third only losing at the last. An unbeatable record in a great season!
