The Castelló supporters clubs held their thirteenth trobada to coincide with the team’s visit to Villarreal and as usual the Vice President of the Social Area Jordi Cardoner i Casaus, accompanied by the Director of the Social Comission Sergi Rosell, made a point of attending the event which brought together all the Barça support in the area.

There were 400 club members from the Castelló area at the event, including the president of la Penya Barcelonista La Vilavella, Jose Miguel Monlleó, the delegate of the Supporters’ Clubs Advisory Council for Comarques de Castelló, Ximo Grifoll and José Luis Jarque, the Mayor of La Vilavella.

Deep roots in the community

La Penya Barcelonista La Vilavella currently boasts 350 members –out of a population of just 3,500, which means one out of every ten inhabitants is a member, a clear demonstration of the deep roots the club has in its town.

The Castelló clubs were able to round of a wonderful day in the best possible way with Barça’s important win over Villarreal -a victory that looks set to be a defining moment of the season.

Nicolau Casaus remembered

During the event, special mention was made to former Vice President by his grandson Jordi Cardoner, who recalled that Sr Casaus had himself visited the penya de La Vilavella during his final years as a Club director.
